Ohio has played some lockdown defense all year, but there were periods where they were like a single living organism. Switching on screens, big men hedging, backside help, getting out on shooters, blocking shots...oh my, it was gorgeous. It was gorgeous.

And Groce keeps talking about Offut and Smith and it's clear they're two important pieces of that defensive puzzle. They simply work their tails off and then you add Cooper's quick hands and Baltic's ability to guard any player on the floor relatively well and it's got to be the best defensive game I've seen as a Bobcat fan in about a decade.
