Tillman is a good defender and the Grizzlies defense will be different with him in the lineup but not necessarily worse. He's switchy, he's physical. But he's just too small to defend some bigger guys around the league. Grizz defense will take a bit of a step down I think but not much....Marcus Smart is a huge upgrade on that end from Tyus and Ziaire Williams looks healthy....he's a big addition in the sense he's someone with true wing size. Grizzlies didn't have that last season. Their defense should remain elite without Adams. The rebounding will be better not being as undersized this season at guard/wing.
