It was this that caused the L at home against Colorado, The big lead for the Ducks was built on amazing shooting, everything was going in; teams can't keep that up. So eventually they started missing. But the D wasn't there to keep the lead. The Ducks became observers of the Buffs taking the game over.
A more purposeful performance was seen by the Ducks against the Beavers; what it looked like in the other games during the winning streak. Ball movement, getting the best shot before shooting the 3. Talking on defense.
I agree about the Bigs, Kepnang is a force, and improving on the offensive end. Dante has the size, needs to work on his game, to be a Deandre Ayton, formally at Arizona, now at center for the first place Phoenix Suns in the NBA.
