THJ was never a plus defender prior to this year. His defense improved last year, and he's giving tremendous effort this year with better defenders (GW, DJJ, Exum, Lively) around him. The effort probably feeds both on and into team morale. Props to the man. Would love to see him add that final component - passing the ball - but I wouldn't trade him now unless a really great opportunity comes up.
