JS -with all due respect, I am not arguing that Deng Gai doesn't get any rebounds, but did he once get 14 rebounds in a game this year. Darrin Phillip AVERAGED 14 rebounds a game and was not good enough to make it to the NBA. He did this while being 4 inches shorter than GAI.

I am not saying Gai is not a good player, simply stating he does not yet demonstrate to me a level of play that matches the hype he receives. Fairfield will not be competitive with schools with a large front line (i.e. Niagara) unless Gai bulks up and improves. If he went to Michigan half the power forwards in the conference would outplay him. He'd be just another player in the big east, nothing special...

Seems to me that Gai has always shown more comfort playing outside. I believe he'd rather take a three than block a shot.
