He's a very good defender. He was on ACC All-Defensive team in college and was very pesky defensively in Dallas when he played. I remember him punking Steph Curry in a game where the refs had to sit him because he was embarrassing him so badly. He was also the main reason NY was so good defensively in the Summer League this year.

He also said in the off-season that he primarily worked on his shooting.

The quote below has Fish written all over it. So much for being Phil's "puppet" :sas2::

Starting off and the rest of the season there will be a lot of talk about who we are offensively and what we’re trying to do in terms of the Triangle but defense is the anchor, that’s the foundation to all good and great teams. So, today we spent two and a half hours on defense. We didn’t do one Triangle-specific drill of any kind Fisher stated.
