"Communication is the biggest thing on defense,'' he said. "If you don't have that, you can easily break down. Me spearheading the defense with Ben and Delonte, we do a good job of trying to make sure guys are in the right spots. We try to help each other. It's not always going to be right, but you have to be able to cover for each other. When you make mistakes, by talking and communicating, you can get through it.''

That sounds familiar, eh? While K has gotten credit for what happened with Team USA, I don't think he gets enough credit for the improved defense of so many Team USA players. Lebron's quote above sounds like so many Duke player's press sound bites, literally spoon fed from the big man himself.
