1. The defensive change Moore has been talking about is actually out there. Leye, Samuels, and Lunan can flat out get after people. They close space and make a guard uncomfortable without needing a scheme to hide them. That is the shorter, harder version he wanted. It showed up in stretches against High Point, and it is showing up again against a different group.
2. Still waiting on the backcourt to show something from the perimeter. They are not missing a bounce so much as they are not taking the shot. The ball is working inside, and I cannot really blame them. Leye and Pierre together are tough with their speed in the paint, so that is the easier read. The three-point line was the number that would not travel after High Point. It still has to show up in the second half if the Pack is going to finish the possession the way the press starts it.
