    +/- is a very misleading stat when you're going by a game to game sample. It has some merit given a bigger sample size.

    Considering how rare good lineups have been to start this year I wouldn’t just throw them in the dumpster.

    Wood is just a poor interior defender with poor defensive instincts, but that's why he's been a journey man so far.

    Those kind of things require playing time IMO. He's only recently started to get that. I think he can improve quite a 'bit in that area. He has great length, great athleticism, and now he just needs to learn the fundamentals.

    Eventually if wood puts up enough offensive numbers nba will stop calling some of these fouls on him .

    The Kings have scored on him at will in the paint. What are you watching?

    The Kings play really fast, but do the Rockets plan on playing good team defense at any point this season? The Kings are getting into the paint off the dribble at will.

    Can we please just go back to switch everything? Let them take Woods off the dribble, see how far it gets them.
