ok people you have misudnderstood my comparison of adam to larry . obviously he will in no way be as good as larry bird. i am only comparing their defenses. larry averaged two steals a game by using his braing and anticipating where the pass was going to go . he had great anticipation skills. he didnt necessarily use his quickness. there is no reason for adam not to develop a good defensive iq and become a mediocre defender. his passing will get better, it does with age. hes a mental chess player, he looks at defences , picks them apart, and makes the right play . its only a matter of time before he learns nba offences and with experience, will become a much better defender. and team defense will ALWAYS be more important than how a single person plays defense.

team defense utilizes everyones strengths. it is a theory that when all the parts of a unit are functioning in tune, the team as a whole becomes a better functioning unit than if everyone was to just follow their individual goals. either way , i dont think adams defense is going to be too much of a problem . again if you play the right way , play team defense, and are always helping at the right time, there is no reason why his defense should be that much of a concern.

^^ i see this same question about kvh come up in almost every thread.... im beginning to think its just to stir things up with people . its been discussed to death.
