Message: [QUOTE="Spaceman213J, post: 4182126, member: 6477"] The Dove hbeing helped transform UConn. His defense helped fuel their press. He was one of those guys who just made everyone better by being on the floor with them. I always thought that Lamb, Walker and company didn't get the credit they deserved. Everyone talks like about how poor Butler shot and played. A lot of that was UConn's defense. I think teams looked at them and height wise, they weren't that impressive. While Lamb is the poster child for this, they were LONG and quik. Smith and Oriakhi, along with lamb could make guys adjust shots that they thougt initially would be easy to get off. Butler shot poorly, but so did Kentucky and Arizona. Aside from length, Kemba and Bazz were pests for other team backcourts during their run. [/QUOTE]
