Message: [QUOTE="Scottobot, post: 4498040, member: 12452"] People keep saying that Karaban is a liability on defense, but he looks fine to me. The way I see it it’s the guards and small forwards that are getting beat, or screened, or falling asleep and allowing the players they are defending to score at will. Starting with the Georgetown game we seem to have lost all ball pressure on the perimeter when Diara is not on the floor. Early in the season Andre Jackson was making amazing steals, but don’t see that anymore, instead I see him overreacting to a pump fake and getting beat by a mediocre offensive player. Other teams are going after Karaban all the time, but converting those opportunities in a lower percentage than when they just drive a guard in the paint. I’m tired of hearing the Karaban is a bad defender line. I think is is BS. [/QUOTE]
