when you overcome 20 turnovers, and give up 21 offensive rebounds,and held a team to 20 points below it's avg, you are a very good defensive team
When you fail to score a bucket in the last 6 minutes of a game and still some how win, you are a very good defensive team
I'm so encourage by the defense, that when we miss shots down the stretch, I don't even sweat it that much because i know this team will play even harder on defense.
Lopez game has been anything but pretty, but he has had major impact, it's like even when the perimeter defender gets beat, lopez, kp, seraphin, have been right there for the most part. That has helped us tighten up on the 3 point line..1st in 3 point defense after been last a yr ago. Thats fcking incredible.
Guys defntly brought into the defensive plan, and it's showing big time.
