just play 11 aggressive minutes and foul out. He wasn't a defensive liability.
With our system, our success is predicated on the defensive end. We don't try to generate turnovers in any capacity. The whole premise it to guard opponents for long portions of the shot clock and then make them take a difficult guarded shot. Except if you get the ball to someone being guarded by Tilmon when he is concerned about foul trouble, and then you get an open layup. That is rather problematic.
Also, much like Klieza, he doesn't attack the offensive glass with the same tenacity he had as a freshman so that part of his game has regressed.
