    It's undeniable. Boogie was sharp on his rotations and actually boxes out. Wood has some poor defensive fundamentals. Boogie deserves more minutes.

    There are a lot of players that are better on defense than Wood. He’s pretty awful.

    Wood was never taught to play the 5 defensively. He is really good he has got to get in the weight room a lil bit too.

    Boogie also runs at a snails pace and looks like he is tired after one play.

    Boogie’s post play makes Dwight Howard look like Hakeem.

    This guy said the same thing about John Wall.

    Point being, not a great scout on the defensive end.
