Message: [QUOTE="Mistakebythelake90, post: 895776, member: 721"] I think that both defend the post differently, and JB touched on that some in one of his pressers (think it was after BC.) Rak is a better positional defender and at guarding straight up without fouling. Keita is very good at recovering to affect shots on the baseline after coming up to the high post to defend there. Boeheim said as much in the presser I was referring to, when he was praising keita for essentially playing 2v1 down low, because our forwards were up so high for that game. I think this is why from game to game we see such varied minutes from our centers. When we need to extend the zone out to shooters, JB tends to go with Keita more, because he's better at recovering. Rak gets more time when the zone is in tighter, and the matchups are much more 1 on 1. [/QUOTE]
