Sal has been helping CCM with his defense....

They certainly looked impressive...we're going to need defensive performances like tonight if we are to contend for the SEC this year.

3 yrs. Minn. Vikings and 2 yrs. at Stanford. Stanford kids always seem to be in the right place.

I was at the Grizz game last night, but when I got home I watched the game and was very impressed.

Nice. I bet you had a blast because that was a good game.

I didn't get to see the game. Was the defense that great or just bad shooting? i noticed that this is the 2nd game that Oakland shot in the 20%s.
This team will definately need outstanding defense.

Thanks, yeah it was great in the 4th Q.

Yes. The defense was pretty amazing. More amazing in the 1st half but still pretty darn good in the 2nd. McBee swarmed their best shooter and when he wasn't on him, whoever picked him up kept him on a short leash. Their PG couldn't generate anything in the 1st half and the help defense was pretty good. We scrambled for loose balls, dominated the glass and forced some turnovers. I was really impressed and hope we see that every single game.

As usual it was a combination of both.

Great D, believe 2 shot clock violations in first half, but also some missed shots...I remember 2 or 3 point blank layups they just missed.
