I posted this in the Rising Stars thread, but I thought this would be good fodder to discuss Brandon Knight. He's at #6 if you want to jump to him, and his efficiency numbers that are shown paint a bleak picture.

In December, dealing with dizziness, Machado went to see a neurologist and an ophthalmologist, both on the same day. To his relief, nothing appeared on the neurologist’s magnetic resonance imaging scan. But the eye doctor prescribed something new: glasses.

Per Terry Foster, part of what's keeping Tayshaun Prince a Piston is his role in "coaching" the youngsters. He specifically mentions Prince's role in developing Greg Monroe as a leader.

Ben Wallace says that you are born as a great individual defender; it's not something that can be taught.

Terry Foster reports Wallace indicates that the Pistons don't have an elite defender now, and must get one via draft of free agency to become title contender again.
