Message: [QUOTE="aceboon, post: 4950198, member: 406"] not that we didn't already know this ourselves, but words from an anonymous BE coach in today's The Athletic article scouting the Final Four. I wonder if Seth Davis still thinks Kalkbrenner is a better Clingan: [B]You spend so much time on how to stop them, but the truth is, it’s incredibly hard to score on them because of what Clingan can do at the rim. Clingan is just a monster defensively. He’s the best defensive player in the country. It was a joke that Kalbrenner was Big East defensive player of the year . It’s not even close in our league. Clingan is just so big, and he can move his feet and he can make multiple plays. You can’t score at the rim because even when you’re not worried about him, you’re kind of worried about him. Then [URL='https://theathletic.com/college-basketball/player/stephon-castle-BaCZ9KFlIzY4vTt7/']Stephon Castle[/URL]’s an elite-level defender. Maybe the best perimeter defender in the country. And then you bring [URL='https://theathletic.com/college-basketball/player/hassan-diarra-peDVTdN6AsNViYxW/']Hassan Diarra[/URL] off the bench, who is basically the same. Just an elite-level defensive player. And they do a great job of hiding Spencer and not letting him get destroyed.[/B] [/QUOTE]
