KAT playing defense like this is a game changer. Straight-up, strong defense in the paint, shuffling his feet and keeping his hands active on the perimeter. Over the last few seasons, he’d improved from a bad defender to a mediocre defender, and this year he’s just actively a good defender.

It's such a massive difference when an offense guy buys into defense, because it keeps him engaged even when shots aren't falling.

Cold-shooting KAT used to be a huge liability, and reversing that is just as big a reason for their record as Ant's leap.
