Yeah and I don't think it's just because his matchup was Kanter tonight who swallowed every board in existence. Roby's 6'8" and not the most aggressive/explosive in those situations. I think he mostly does what he's coached to do though which is to get his body on someone and try to box out as much as he can. Though he still slips up now and then and ball watches once the shot goes up. I think for him to grow into a starting caliber player on a winning team he's either gotta get much better defensively/on the glass or learn the skills necessary to play at a forward position next to a legit rim protecting center.
