Interesting. I thought pre-injury he was on a different level as a pick and roll player but not as good on defense. When he first returned I mentioned something similar on this board and questioned if he would make the Bogut-like transformation from offensive minded big to defensive specialist. Thankfully he recovered some of his bounce and still has his moments on offense.
Just feels like he is playing smarter these days. On both ends.
