Man, that brings back memories. My Sr. year of High School, we did not really have a center - tallest kid was about 6'1" or 6'2" and could not jump to save his life, in a league where most schools had several guys 6'5" or above.
So I would be our "center" - at all of 5'8". I never jumped. I just tried to anticipate where the other center would tip it and react and get there to tip it away to one of our guys. Worked a few times...but the looks I would get from these 6'7" guys as I stepped into the circle was priceless.
