Since we know that Christmas is a much better offensive player, I decided to look at their rebounding and block rates per 40 minutes in Big East games only and here's the results:
 
Christmas - 8.2 rebounds and 3.2 blocks/40 mins
Keita - 6.5 rebounds and 2.9 blocks/40 mins
 
Obviously neither one rebounds very well for a guy his size, but Christmas is clearly superior on the boards and blocks shots at a higher rate. The most amazing stat as well is that Keita picks up a foul every 5.3 minutes he's on the floor. He's also picked up only 1 less foul than Christmas, even though he's played over 100 less minutes in conference games. Needless to say, that is horrific.
 
I don't mean to hate on Keita. He obviously tries very hard, and from all accounts, is a good teammate and represents the program well. But the stats seem to back up what my eyes tell me, which is that he's just not very good, and we need to see less of him on the floor if this team is going to make a deep tourney run.
