another good game for Crowder. I wish there was a stat for how many times someone touches the ball on D. Like tips that don't get rebounds, pokes where you don't get the steal, kick balls, things that would show which players are being active so the fans that don't watch the games could see how good Crowder is becoming.

Deflections.  I know coaches track it.  I don't believe there is a statistic for it that is available to the public, though.  Agree that it would be a cool stat to follow.

It really would be. I would bet that Crowder, AB and Smart are way above average at deflections. I bet too that the more guys you have getting a lot of deflections the more it gets other guys to get some too and sort of snowballs. Our D is sparking our runs and our runs are winning games.

I've been saying for a while we have a really good 1 2 and 3. (throw IT in there too). Sully has been really good over all too. So again, how would we not be a contender if we could somehow trade Lee and some, most or all of our picks for a really top notch center?

Crowder is playing really well and I'm glad we have him locked up for multiple years. He can make open 3's and he plays the passing lanes really well. he's a big reason we lead the league in forcing turnovers.
