Bringing out a basketball term here, but it seemed like our big guys, mainly Thompson and Jiri, did a better job hedging off ball screens then I can ever remember. They stuffed the pick'n'roll nearly the whole game. It was one thing that really stood out to me as a HUGE improvement in our defense tonight.

I agree. The ones I remember the most were at the end of each half when they couldn't get a clean shot.

It just goes to show how far a little defense and coaching will go. This was a pretty well-coached game by G-Mac.
