How difficult is it to understand that what makes AR a good defender is his ability to chase down and block shots? People think just because he gets blocks and he's tall he should play center...NO. AR is not the same when he is forced to play POST DEFENSE. He's very athletic and thus defending on the PERIMETER plays to his strength.
If he were to defend in the post it would require more positioning and physical strength rather than quickness. If AR played the 5 he'd be in foul trouble all the time.
Perimeter and post defense are two totally different things. AR only excels at one of them. He's either a 3 or 4, that's it.
