Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 4836716, member: 405"] 8 blocks in 17 minutes against St. John's. Have we ever had anyone else do something like that? Just the potential to bring a guy off the bench for 10 minutes, who might get 2 or 3 blocks, and intimidate inside. That's why he would be a useful piece. In 200 minutes last year - 5 forty minute games - he got 47 rebounds, 26 blocked shots and 7 steals, and he scored 27 points. Forget the "per 40", because no center plays 40 minutes. Let's just say "per 20 minutes", because that would be his optimal contribution. These are the numbers: 4.7 rebounds, 2.6 blocks, 0.7 steals, and 2.7 points per game. Who wouldn't take that from your back-up center? The kid is not without talent. [/QUOTE]
