Yes and no. In the context of Assange's goals, NSA involvement is very interesting. To Wikileaks, the credible threat of future leaking is probably more important than the single leak of past infractions, because the threat impedes the flow of internal communications, which makes an "unjust" organization's internal "thought processes" more costly and less efficient. Proven NSA involvement basically means there's no cheap way to keep high stakes secrets safe from leaking. The NSA has the bigger budget and better technology, so you can't defend against this path of leaking. Yet NSA leaks too, so it seems NSA can't defend themselves, either. Taken together, this says nobody can defend against leaking: That's Wikileaks' most favored state of affairs.
