Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 125764, member: 716"] It's true that Rakeem's defensive mistakes (two, not one, on the first three defensive possessions last night) rather than some Boeheim scheme are to blame for his limited minutes. But Boeheim does have a quicker trigger with Christmas than with anyone else on the team. After Christmas gave up two quick buckets, Fair subbed in. He promptly fell asleep on the wing and gave up the baseline for an alley-oop, then let Leslie climb over him for a put-back. Same result as Christmas - two baskets. With extended minutes, though, Fair put together a solid game (especially offensively) and did a nice job doubling down on State's bigs late in the first half. And Christmas is clearly finding his way right now and is a complete defensive liability. [/QUOTE]
