One of the best defensive turnarounds, if not the best, I've seen in 40+ years.

Duke's guards and wings in particular. They really stopped the dribble drive penetration that killed Duke early in the year on D, even in wins.

But, Tyus, Quinn, and Grayson all picked up D tremendously. Grayson played phenomenal D late in the year (basically in the tourney).

And, how about a shout out to Matt Jones and his D on Decker. Forget Bo Ryan's excuse about Decker having a bad game. He had a bad game because we locked him down and it was mostly Matt Jones.
 
Truer words have never been spoken. What a HUGE turnaround for this team. I cannot believe that we are the national champions.
