Keita = Pure hustle

[NortheastOHSUfan]

Just the type of player every championship team needs. Plays all out on both ends of the court.

I agree, I love Baye's intensity and effort out there, just needs to work on his offense a bit.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Yeap...and is money from the line now

 

[Marsh01]

He's giving them very good minutes tonight

 

[Madbiker]

Yeah but he needs to work on his hand strength. The guy just can't grip a rebound. He touches a lot of balls but rarely gets a clean rebound. I think its just a lack of strength.

He's been huge the last 2 games. I like Xmas' potential but he's not ready for major minutes if Fab is in foul trouble

Yeah, I don't mean to be Mr. Negative; I do appreciate Keita's hustle. But he has worse hands than Terrence Roberts right now. I don't know if he's hurt or just too weak, but he's coralling maybe 10% of the balls he gets his hands on.

That's still not as disappointing as Fab, who's plenty strong but chooses to volleyball half the defensive rebounds that come his way.

still too weak at times

The next time Christmas even bends to go get a ball will be the first. I cant believe how robotic this kid seems...lackadasical.

I love his play...Fair and Baye are my two favs...kinda like Keuth in '03.

As the other team goes - these guys are #7 & 8?

He is easily the fastest center, endline to endline, that SU has ever had. One of these days one of the guards is going to find him for a monster transition dunk that will bring the house down.

Keita's hands are awful...I've nicknamed him Roberto Duran ("Hands of Stone")...I still love his energy and effort.
