if so how's our perimeter defense looking?
the other question is it seems it's been either Terry or Harris running the point... thoughts on Daniels running the point, even for brief stretches of time or vs. teams that have bigger players running the point (ala Wade on the Heat of Jaric on the clips)?

I got to watch the New Orleans game it was the first I have been able to watch.
All I can say is it didn't even look like the same team I have become use to, the defense was for the most part very good. Especially when you factor in they haven't played together for very long, They played mostly man to man and very aggressive.
I have to say I was extremely impressed with what I saw, they seemed to be able to contest almost all shots and did a very good job of plugging up the lane and got many steals and deflections
I've only got to watch the one game, but what I saw excited me very, very much.
