I also have to think our perimeter defense will be improved this year with Smart, Manning and others eating up Tremont's minutes.
You mean the same Waters that averaged over 3 steals per game and was named SEC Defensive POY last season? Yeah, because he was such a defensive liability.

I loved Waters but he really didn’t deserve THAT award. That was your typical we have a great player that we can’t give player of the year so let’s hive him another award. He wasn’t even the best defensive player on our team and I’m not sure he was second or even third. He was your typical undersized guard who couldn’t really guard anybody with decent size so he gambled in passing lanes. He was really good at it but that isn’t what great defenders do that is what limited defenders do.

Yes, that Waters. I absolutely loved Tremont. One of my all time favorite tigers, honestly. But getting a few steals a game doesn’t mean he was a necessarily great defender. He often would over commit and get burned. It was pretty much boom or bust for him as a defender. Luckily we had KBW last year to help clean up the mess on the interior.
