He deserves his own thread. Awesome D Subday - I remember specifically when we went to that little 2/3 matchup some he had a tip that led to a turnover. We forget that he started a LOT lash year.

Agree. He's skilled, quick on defense, versatile, and not afraid to get under the boards. He can shoot FTs too, lol. He'll be a big part of the team's success from here on out.
He is an AWESOME defender when focused and healthy. Him, Ron and JY. And of course Myles is a great disruptor. I think Tez is a little overrated as a defender. Geo struggles. Paul struggles. But the effort is there on those two. Cliff struggles, but he's young.
He was very active. His D has been up and down this year. Yesterday he was locked in and a willing defender and very effective. Doesn’t possess the best lateral quickness but that can be overcome with desire and length.
Caleb knows his keys to PT is defense. Very encouraging to see his offense and decision making improve yesterday.

You can see now that he’s getting his legs back under him he is returning to the superstar he can be. Unfair for fans to be harping on him last few weeks when everytime he went to the bench he’d put a back brace on. Some of you have no idea how much back pain affects your whole body and movement
Who forgot he started alot for us last yr? Many of us thought he would start this yr (before the RS) and know exactly what his impact could be.
He's always been a favorite with me. Every time he seems set to take the next step, he has some kind of setback. Perhaps, many of these were due to his injury. I still think he has one of the higher ceilings on the team. Really glad to see him play well yesterday. Good D, and good decision making to go along with 7 pts, 4 rbs, 2 assists, 2 steals and 0 turnovers is a solid line from him.
HIs put back was awesome at the end of the first half and he also got fouled on that play which was not called!!
His defense yesterday was superb. He was absolutely HARASSING his man on the perimeter, just relentless. And he definitely got, or caused, a few steals with that long wingspan. I remember one play where he dug down to help Myles with TJD, and stripped the ball for a steal. And I think he tipped the one pass from the baseline out to the perimeter, sparking a transition opportunity.
I think you just want to make a new thread every time something pops into your head
Yeah he should have been in at the end as JY of course missed the front end of a one and one but I would rather have JY and Caleb over Paul at the end because Paul is not as good on defense; those 2 are our best defensive players
He is also our best pure shooter when he gets those shots on a kick out for 3!!
