which we all knew but it was blatently obvious last night.
From the opening tip it was obvious that Zeller is not 7'0. When he lined up across from Rak he was maybe and inch or 2 taller and we all know that despite being listed at 6'9 Rak is 6'8 at best. Zeller and Baye were eye level and different worlds in terms of athleticism. Zeller is the better player but BMK has a world more athletic ability and potential if/when he learns the game better on offense.
It went down hill from there since Zeller is at least 3 inches taller than Watford which meant he is 6'6 at best.
So while IU's listed starting lineup was 7'0, 6'9, 6'5, 6'0, 6'0 the team that actually took the court was 6'10, 6'6, 6'4, 5'10, 5'10. They just could stack up against our zone that goes a legit 6'8/6'10, 6'8, 6'8, 6'4, 6'6. It looked like Varisty vs JV in terms of size/athleticism and JB really had a master plan to fully take advantage of it.
