Cav defense even better?

Fansided has an interesting article by Jacob Zinkula which notes that Virginia already-impressive defense may be even better this season in that they better at are limiting 3PT attempts against them. Opponents aren't getting off those shots. And as they learned in the embarrassing loss in the NCAA tournament last season, if you let other teams get off those shots, sometimes they go in. I have said for a long time that the SNA (Shots Not Allowed) is one of the most important non-measured statistical cagetories in basketball.
