Yes, the post presence is something that isn't usually quantified on the defensive end. Makes it so much easier for perimeter defenders to feed drives into the post for the swat.
However, I have been more than impressed with Coleby's defensive presence in the paint.
Believe me, I am gut-punched about Udoka going down. It's a huge blow. Huge.
But this team was, is, and will continue to be defined by the guard play.
