Garbage Work From IB MBA Associates

I keep getting garbage work from my MBA associates. This has been ok for the majority of my IB career as I usually clean it up myself or work late at night with the MBA associate. I'm nearing the end of my second year VP and should be focusing more on client coverage. Anyone have any advice on how to ensure work quality is strong? I think I perhaps am too friendly with the MBA associates but I've never been a dick ever in my career and like to treat everyone around me well.
