His reluctance to play zone when needed is a big flaw. He wants to run all the time and his "pressure" man to man feeds the offense. But, when your defense cannot stop dribble penetration, this becomes a problem.
K is no doubt a better defensive coach. Dean was also a great defensive coach. He would always change his defenses out of time outs and would usually get good results from that strategy. The holes are a lot easier to game plan for. Their defense is always the same. Find the flaws and dare them to stop you. They plan to outscore you, and lately they have done just that. If the heels learn to guard the ball better and the bigs block lots of shots, their defense could be scarey good. We simply do more by putting forth more effort.
