Nathan Jawai v Aron Baynes.. Who would you choose?
Yeah mates from Taipans.
Like I said, Baynes had him five years ago while he was playing for WSU.
I think their both really good players, I'd just pick Baynes any day because he's in better shape, not injury prone and works harder than anyone.

I think if Nate Jawai was in good as shape as Baynes he would be a big time player in the NBA. Arn't they both from Cairns and friends? U would think they would work out together? But if Nate was in his shape he would school him as good as Baynes is..

Hey Paul, I said almost...
He got a lot of accolades while playing in Europe, that's why a lot of the big teams were chasing, but he picked the Spurs over them and also the Timberwolves.
He has a lot of praise from all the coaches about what he does on the court, cause it's not all about stats for them.

Jawai is a Beast!!!! I saw his game coming back from injury with 22 points and 7 rebounds or something like that against the defending euroleague champs. I think he even sat out the whole 1st quarter. Was impressive!! Ashame he is out hurt he was looking good!

Watched Baynes v Jawai in Cairns about 5 years ago, Baynes was all over him then.
Baynes has been an ALL STAR in almost every European League he has played in, now he's at the Spurs and considered one of their future stars after the TD era.
I'd take Baynes any day of the week.




Interesting when people say Jawai is a much bigger body / more size than Baynes.
1) Both are listed at 6"10
2) Jawai is heavier. But he is carrying considerably
more fat.
3) Have you seen Baynes upper body? He is pretty damn big. Big wide shoulders and quite a bit of muscle!
People say Jawai is scary big. Yes. But Baynes' size is damn scary too.



If both are healthy?

Ex Trail Blazer Kevin Duckworth has died aged just 44.
There is no indication of foul play.

Sad, I will always remember him manning the paint in the early 90's. Always seemed to be smiling, not your typical angry big man..Great team with him, Drexler, Kersey, Williams ans Porter.
