I wonder if that is on Adams or...

Adams is doing exactly what he is supposed to be doing and others are not, leaving him to have to go Chinese Fire Drill to cover for those that aren't doing their job.
Listening to Locked on now, and Jake is talking about how poor Adam has been lately in 1 on 1 and rim protecting.

He seems to be about ready to push the panic button on Adams.

The issue with the defense is clearly a lack of trust factor and overhelping. There's definitely some pressing going on by several guys to deny dribble penetration. We are doing a poor job on the perimeter staying in front of opposing guards off the screen. I'm starting to think that we will always have these issues until we land a good and long on ball defensive wing that can tie this defense together.

SVG has tried everything. Aggressively protecting the paint and dropping the bigs while collapsing the paint and he's tried to aggressively denying dribble penetration with the bigs by aggressively trapping and we've even seen zone coverages and nothing has helped.

I no longer think the issue is coaching and it's 100% personnel. They need to find a vocal guy on the perimeter who can lead this defense. It's not happening with this group as they are.
