[QUOTE="Illini 993, post: 2060048, member: 748342"] On the Clingan vs Edey matchup, Clingan is obviously more athletic and mobile. But, I also think that how each plays defense could come into play, according to how the refs call the game. Edey mostly just stands straight up, hands high to block shots. Clingan will pursue blocks, and jump to get to them. This would be an obvious Clingan advantage, except that Edey is 7'4" with a 7'10.5" wingspan, Clingan is 7'2" with a 7'7' wingspan. If the refs are calling it tighter, I could see Clingan more likely to pick up fouls, and Edey's method would help him. Edey's WS is only 1.5" less than the best in the NBA or NCAA - Wembanyama at 8' even. [/QUOTE]
