    Theis works in this line up. I hope Silas sees that. I know he started Theis just because he thinks he's a better matchup for Jokic, but he works better with Green and KPJ, and is so much better on defense than Wood, Jokic or not.

    Christian Wood being benched, no matter the reason, is pretty much all anyone needs to know about him.

    Theis is just a small ball center so he plays well if he's the only big guy out there. He's never been a garbage player but he is a classic example of looking bad when put out of position.

    And let's face it, Wood is the most predictable guy in our squad. You know already he's slipping the screen or holding the ball over half court if he rebounds.

    You can see the difference in defense once wood came in. Just soft. Trade him already

    Too many people looking for their own shot in the wood lineup and the youngster defer to him too much.
