    Wood is much more talented than Clint. While behind defensively, much more talented offensively and still a good rebounder. His potential is MUCH higher. Wood, easy. I liked Capela, but he's reached his ceiling.

    Wood is a better player by far but Clint right now vs. Wood right now was better for the 2018 team that nearly won the title.

    But give Wood a year or so and he'll probably even pass Clint there. Wood's D gets dogged on a lot, but I think he's going to be a plus defender. He puts up a pretty valiant effort at times to force difficult shots when he gets switched on to guards. He also sometimes gives great help side rim protection. He hasn't played many NBA minutes. That's going to keep getting better.

    His huge weakness is getting pushed around in one on one post defense, but he should hopefully be able to pack some more onto his frame and get better there.

    Getting Strong and more use to anchoring a defense
    I seriously think he will be better than Giannis .. . he IMO at this moment has more upside
    I think Giannis has peaked . . .. .

    Wood is simply too easily moved right now.
    Team are trying to bully him
