I believe a lot of the problem with our lack of aggressiveness on defense is a function of our players have gotten tentative because of the inconsistent calls. Coach Cal complained vehemently about the officiating when we played them while acknowledging that the calls didn't favor one team or the other, just that they were terribly inconsistent. Our guys seem to be more concerned with not fouling than moving their feet which ends up looking like a lack of effort. Another big problem with our defense is that on the offensive end of the court, our timing between the ball movement and the guys in the post is terrible. That results in not getting the ball to the bigs in a position for them to score and leaves them in a bad position to rebound. Our use of picks is sloppy, timing and spacing on pick and rolls is terrible and passing has been lazy. All of those woes lead to turnovers and getting killed in transition.
