Aron Baynes - MIP candidate or anomalous hot streak?

[AussieSteve]

Never averaged more than 6.6ppg in a season.

Has started the last 5 games and averaged 17.0ppg. Back to back 20pt games now. And the Suns are winning.

Can he sustain this for 20 more games while Ayton is out?

Played great during the World Cup too. Seems like he's figured it out

I wanted him on the Clips badly, dude would have been the perfect five for us.

Phoenix really built a solid squad. Too bad it's in a year where the West may be the deepest it has ever been.

and the Suns are real deep in the West :lol they can beat anybody its a whole new team with a good coach.


Baynes is the best screener in the nba hands down.

People gave me sh*t this offseason when I said Baynes was an underrated pickup for us and I felt like he could be a solid starter in this league for some teams lacking a center. Every time I watched him get minutes on the Celtics he looked pretty good to me, always seemed to make an impact on the game. Not that I watched the Celtics much, but still. Even if his shooting regresses, he can still make a big impact with his defense, overall size/strength, rebounds, and passing. It's just too bad he's finally showing us how good he can be when he's already 32 years old.

I've watched him play for Australia these last few years and always wondered why he didn't get more minutes and a bigger role in the NBA.

He good.

He good.
But how good exactly? Question.

[highwhey]

Definitely. He's balling out of his mind currently, plays good defense as well.

Really hope we make the playoffs.

Rubio

certainly one of the best floppers. Not much else to hang his hat on it though

[AussieSteve]

Baynes with 23 points again tonight.

Averaging 17.6 over 7 games as a starter.
