As to Wood: I have to admit I was wrong about him. He has become very important to this team as a reliable shooter who drains it when he gets his feet set in his spots and at the FT line. His defense has improved a lot and gets more layups and assists than I ever thought possible. He is now an official 6th man.

The Woods debate has become unreadable as it has become a proxy for the â€˜stats vs sightâ€™ conflict. Trying to assess Woodsâ€™ value to the team using the numbers alone is futile. There are so many intangibles with him both on the court and off. Iâ€™m a data guy, both personally and professionally, but one of the best lessons I have learned and taught is knowing where analytics end and common sense begins.
