for a lot of the 2nd half, he really did shut him down. price got 23 points but i don't remember him really doing much at all with tj on him. in those 7-10 minutes(i can't remember exactly how long it lasted) where ou didn't score, tj was great.

In those last 7-10 minutes, EVERYONE was great on D. Price was by far the best player on the court last night.
note: I didn't say every night, I said last night.  |

you must mean the best player on ou. i think the game showed how good ford really is. if you look in the box score, he had a bad game(he really wasn't that great). but if you saw the game, you knew he was the reason they won.
other good defenders: royal ivey, the whole cincinnati team

I know this is a thread that is pointing out individual players but Kentucky is playing the best team defense I've seen in a long time. They are working beautifully as a unit. So good in fact, it could ulitmately win a championship.

I just spit my orange juice out. Ford played probably the worst he's ever played at UT....did you even watch the game? If you're going on defense alone then I guess you could say Quannas White was the best player on the court....  |

i watched the entire game. he played a bad game offensively. i said that. but he played great defensively against price. so even though he played bad, i think he was still the main reason they won. and when you can play bad and still win the game for your team, i think that proves just how great of a player he is.

TJ Ford did NOT win the game for Texas. If anything, it was team defense and Royal Ivey.

Where's the love for Bernard Robinson Jr.?! Long arms, big strong body, quick, and a great vertical. Always guards other teams best player, and gets like 3 steals a game. GREAT defender.

strong words... anybody think he can make it to the NBA??

Hmmm, no love for Hinrich at all. I don't think he's the best but he's definitely a great defender when he's outta foul trouble. One thing, I though Juan Dixon was a very overrated defender overall. He came up with a lotta steals, but that was anticipation mostly. I don't think he's really a shut down kinda defender, he's more of the big-play defender if you know what I mean.

Who's the best defender in college?
