Defense? We just went 51/58/89 from the floor on offense!

Caleb’s D is great tho obv

Yes we had a great offensive game as well but it always starts on the defensive side of the court with Pikiells team.

The defensive success of this team gives us confidence and flow on offense, it’s very clear.

We shut J Davis down. If he goes off for 25 + we most likely don’t hang with them.

we are continuing to get better...yeah, the 4 losses (Lafayette, UMass, home to MD, at Minnesota) hurt our ranking, but we are finishing as a NCAA team.

6 Quad 1 wins by my count. 3 straight over Top 25, and above us in standings. Win at Wisconsin.

9-5 now in B1G. 3 more to 12 B1G wins before tourney.

He deserves a "forced turnover" on the late play (1:06 to go) where he beat Davis to a spot in the land. Davis stopped and threw it back towards his bench but missed his teammate. Turnover Wisconsin. It was 66-60 at the time.
I agree. He forced so many turnovers or bad situations for Wisconsin that DO NOT SHOW UP IN THE STATS.

Caleb straight up dogs the opponent. I would hate to play against him!!

I don't know how he doesnt win dPoy. He's not only the best 1 on 1 defender. He plays the best team defense too. His hands are always in passing lanes. He's a great help defender too. I don't know how he maintains this intensity and focus so long, especially without fouling. He needs a knickname.

He’s B1G DPOY for sure, but I think he’s National DPOY. Watch a lot of basketball. No one singly is involved in so many stops and turnovers as he is, and maybe that I can even remember

Didn't people say he should be benched, give up his scholarship, etc. at various points last year & early this year?

Caleb’s D has been downright nasty lately. I would even go so far as to say it’s the best I’ve seen from an RU perimeter player in a generation at least. The guy is all over the place on the defensive end causing problems for our opponents.
