If we develop Baynes

Dude was born in NZ. He is Australian.

Baynes doesn't seem to have innate offensive abilities which Tiago possesses. Tiago has more athleticism. Baynes has the offensive ability and athleticism of someone like Perkins. But I love the guy. He'll be a low pay role player and his ceiling is a regular rotation player.

Bball is such a big mans game.

Every player under 6'8 has amazing bball skills and athleticism.

Nearly every player above 6'9 is a raw limitless GOAT.

And then when you get a polished big, you get Hakeem/Duncan out of 10 legacy

Baynes, at best, will be a solid reserve. I don't see him breaking out into a star or anything, but he could be a solid backup if he gets a better offensive game and becomes more aggressive.

I really look for him to make a big improvement next season if given a chance to get minutes. (loose about 10 pds and take a dance class this summer) will help with foot speed/rebounds and coordination.

The guy is great for our pick and roll offense I mean it takes a player an extra second to get around him and he sets some tough screens that puts a hurt on the defender. Plus it's nice to have someone who Howard can't punk out you know he is not going to fuck with Baynes.

Just thinking of how well he and Bertrans will play next year in the second unit he is going to give Bertrans a lot of open shots with his monster screens.

:lol You can't really work on your lateral foot speed, or your vertical for that matter. What you have is pretty much what you have.

Aron Baynes is 27, and pretty much is what he is.

baynes just needs to improve his post game and help defense..

All Baynes need to do is shove some niggas like Perkins or RoLo or some 3rd big man and dunk it. Seems he's getting better at screens too. Almost a wall.

wondering if we stick with him a develop baynes a bit over the offseason and give him bonners mins (spot mins now when matchups allow)
