Message: [QUOTE="statsgrad, post: 853256, member: 3183"] Not to be a debbie downer but I think lateral agility/quickness is extremely important, especially defensively, to JB. As talked about repeatedly, our centers have to cover a lot of ground in the zone. Xmas and Dajuan are both guys who had all the tools coming out of high school except for quickness and have underachieved relative to expectations thus far. Baye on the other hand has almost no tools except for good quickness for a big and has played above the expectations most people had for him. Foot speed is not something that can be improved upon all that much or Dajuan would be getting a lot more PT right now. I think that Bryant is a tremendous talent but I think Diagne might be a better fit for Syracuse. [/QUOTE]
