    Those moving screens only are allowed in GS... Cousins will learn.

    this "hybrid" (discretionary) defensive scheme won't work - especially with the shortened season and bad defensive players.

    Just gotta box out. I don't mind the individual defense, but the boxing out is killing us.

    Wood is not a good rebounder.

    Is it possible to have an elite defense with Wood and Boogie as your big men and no Roco?

    Has wood taken a breather yet? He’s got pretty good stamina.

    I guess this is why Brown took Nwaba out of the lineup. the stroke is wet.

    No doubt Wood is the real deal on offense.

    Sterling Brown is easily, EASILY the worst defender in the rotation right now without question.

    But this is how I know it’s coaching.

    In the Bucks scheme, he was actually sort of a menace.
