But this season EB is healthy an JH is quicker than anyone else so top of the key D has improved dramatically imo.

Second is Childs. He is defending the rim without fouling. That has not been the case with our bigs--they have not been able to stay on the floor. Again, I don't know how you can throw that into a ratings algorithm, but it has been very noticeable to me.
