This might be the best defensive team we’ve had under Barnes. Everyone is so versatile, they don’t lose much if anything on a switch. Obviously you wouldn’t want Uros guarding a 1 or ZZ guarding a 5, but other than that I would feel comfortable with anyone in this lineup guarding anyone from an opposing lineup. And our best defender (JJJ) has barely even played. It sure would be nice if he was up to speed before we play MD and AZ back to back next week.

Absolutely. We might be a legit offensive option away from being a Final Four threat, but we all know what they say about defense and championships...

As I posted below, we set a record for the best Ken Pom defensive efficiency ever against Kansas.  That's just mind-blowing considering how many ... I am going to say thousands if not tens of thousands of games have been played since Ken Pom has been around.
