It has improved........at least a little.
"We knew we could be a good defensive team," Crabbe said. "We have length, we have athleticism, and I just feel like when we get stops, it opens up a lot of other things for us. We can get out in transition and the flow of the game is better ... everything is fun, everybody locks in, everybody gets the next stop, next stop, and it leads to a lot of good things. We know how important it is. Everybody kept talking at the beginning, 'Don't focus on the playoffs, just focus on the process.' But at this point, you can't really hide that. You can't just ignore that the playoffs are right there. We know we're in it, we know what we're up against, and we just want to make sure we're on top of things. And that starts with defense."
