Message: [QUOTE="BostonCanuck, post: 2424046, member: 6931"] I picked up on that apparent contradiction, too. My immediate take was that Geno is trying to lull opposing teams into complacency by downplaying the importance of defense. Defense is clearly an X-factor for the Huskies, always has been. They utterly destroyed Cal last night with their full court press, which led to turnover after turnover, often even after Cal had made it across half court. I think pace of play is shaping up as this season's other X-factor. All of this is made possible by the superior conditioning (and this year, enhanced depth) that the Huskies possess. [/QUOTE]
