Defense
I feel that we are playing the best cohesive team defense in the Smith era. We're doing a much better job of defending the 3 point and what we lack in athleticism is masked by funneling everything into the QDZ (QuetaDangerZone). It's obvious that once a team gets the ball inside, they are tentative and know they are flirting with disaster.

Re: Defense
It also helps we're limiting them to one shot per possession and limiting turnovers on offense. Those first couple games giving up 80+ had a lot of turnovers and easy buckets involved.

Re: Defense
I thought UNM did a better job of getting Queta out of the paint in the second half, especially late. I can see more teams trying to do this. It hurt UNM on the boards, but it opened up lanes for the drive. I would bet game 2 will be heavy on this.
