First off, to all of you who think this is going to be a snarky post, it might, so leave now. Just kidding. This is actually not bad assessment, it is just going to identify an on-going weakness which has plagued the UCLA Basketball team under Head Coach Steve Alford. The defense.
Let me preface this by saying that the defense is a tad better than last season. Aaron Holiday is aggressive on the defensive side of the ball. Lonzo Ball is showing signs of a potentially great defensive player. TJ Leaf is grabbing rebounds like nobody’s business.
