You can't look at it in terms of that.
His post defense is average. His help defense at the 4 is abhorrant. He has zero shot blocking instincts. Guards drive right into him with zero fear. Our defense with him starting at the 4 was really, really bad.
It wasn't any different in his first year. Jerebko is even less suited to play the 4 than Austin Daye. At least Austin is a threat to block a shot every now and then. Jonas just sucks on every level defensively at the 4, and he is not nearly good enough offensively to make up for it.
I like Jonas as a starting SF. I love him as a combo 3/4 backup. As a starting 4, he is a liability.
