[QUOTE="blackdog, post: 1499362, member: 224455"] The defense has been better the last couple games. Sure not playing the best teams but haven't been giving up the massive amounts of open looks we did last year. A lot more good contests and making them shoot over someone, less open layups and backdoors, wayyyyy less fouls but also a lot less turnovers forced. I haven't looked at the numbers but I would guess our opponents fg% is much improved from early last season. The switch away from the constant high pressure and denial of the passes seems to be paying off so far. [/QUOTE]
