The VCU team that played tonight reminded me a lot of the team in 2006-2007 that Anthony Grant had his first season. A lot of pressing and using the run and jump at halfcourt. I know it was the first game but the havoc does not look like something that we have not seen before. I think the team looked very comfortable defensively because Smart's defensive principles look to be very similar to that of Grant. Hopefully Smart will be able to keep depth in the future so that he can stick to this style of play. We all saw how Grant had to kind of go away from it because of depth issues after the first season. Very good start for the Rams.
