Message: [QUOTE="Zelda Zonk, post: 3712360, member: 966"] Sidibe played like a power forward in high school, and had a pretty sweet midrange shot. We installed him at Center and took away that face-up jumper. JBA played like Lydon/a 3. An outside player. We installed him at Center, thinking we could take a kid who didn't even start for his high school team, change his position, and convert him to Center. Edwards—if my recollection is correct—again, didn't start for the upper level team at his 'academy.' Relatively new to basketball. So, we have three players who are supposed to be Centers in the best conference in the country, who either aren't centers and/or weren't even good enough to start in high school. And they're being 'coached up' by who again? Which of our former guards with zero post experience? Someone's going to chime in to remind us that Bernie was a bigs genius and never played the game or somesuch. Which isn't proof of anything, nor is it predictive of anything, nor is it a reasonable strategy. None of this seems logical. It's not the sole reason why we flounder mid-pack in the ACC, but it's a [I]bigs[/I] part of it. Sometimes i think JB does stuff because he's so arrogant that he believes he's 'gonna show everybody' how brilliant he is by making success out of something stupid. I think Marek's our center because everyone thought Steve Kerr was brilliant for Draymond Green. That's the only explanation i have. He's not a stupid man. But, he has some stupid ideas. And he clings to them like they're a part of him. That's a component of narcissism. I used to flippantly say that JB changed from nebbish to narcissist when he won the National Championship. That in his pocket was like "FU Money." Alright. Cue the parade of folks with "Jim Boeheim" sharpied-over the "Syracuse" on their jerseys... [/QUOTE]
