Good cover defense and shot blocking, but very little in the way of getting in passing lanes and picking off passes. That's the main thing I like about Alabama's defense, they are constantly throwing hands around getting steals by invading the passing lanes.

Different styles of defense, both very effective IMO.

Good defensive rotation is far more difficult than knocking down 3's and high flying dunks. I just don't get how how true basketball fans can't see this.

They usually do this, but I didn't see much of it today, especially from Kelly and Rivers. I was disappointed because it is a great way to start a fast break.

And that's one of the reasons I have Alabama as a major sleeper this year (potential Final 4/Elite 8 squad).

I was going to post about how well Alabama's defense plays under Anthony Grant but I see you've already got that covered
