He has the physical tools and athleticism, but he's constantly biting on ball fakes and letting guys beat him off the dribble. He's just good at jumping into passing lanes, because, again, athleticism. He just has the *potential* to be a good defender... but he has Knucklehead Syndrome, so I doubt it. I think people just see a long athlete and the occasional flashy steal or block and think, "Now HERE'S an NBA defender!"

And yes, as alluded to above, except for maybe RHJ, he's got the ugliest jumper in the draft by a country mile.
