Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 3360854, member: 1674"] At least not yet. In our system, the two are pretty much interchangeable anyways; play the same spot defensively and essentially play the same role offensively. With the centers we generally trot out there though, we're going to need some serious rebounding intensity from some of our other players if Newton doesn't improve in that regard. Like a front court of Edwards, Newton, and an average rebounding SF could be historically bad based on the way they currently play. Hoping Boeheim can coach some more off-ball effort into Newton, but the track record of guys learning to box out aggressively here is not good at all. If Griffin is as good a rebounder as his numbers suggest, that should theoretically help a lot. [/QUOTE]
