I think you will find that he doesn’t like being called “Aussie Shaq”… its just a name the media have given him. If he is given time he will improve, he is just a kid from a very small town in australia (1500 people?) so we be very nervous in the “big time” especially because he has had big expectations (from australia) and being labelled “Aussie Shaq” and all… plus he has only been play bball since he was a teenager.

That pick and roll tandem works pretty good for the aussie team.

Jawai loves to rebound. He didn’t play much last year because at the start of the season the raps found some “irregularities” with his heart and would not let him play or practice.

Eventually they figured out he just has a really big heart and has had it all his life. But by that point, he was so far behind in picking up the playbook that they couldn’t really use him. They stashed him in the D league where he averaged some decent numbers.

I’d love to see him get some tick. He’s raw. Think of him as a bigger Reggie Evans who is confused on D.

The Timberwolves are gonna sucks balls. Opening night starting 5; Flynn, Ellington, Brewer, Cardinal, Jawai with Sessions off the bench. LAME.

Good move, it never hurts young teams to get young talent and turn it into cornerstones of their franchise. It is not a big risk at all so it could be a low risk-high reward situation.

He could be what Al Jeff needs next to him…

Aussie Shaq, Baby Shaq, Greek Shaq… All those Shaq wannabes and they still don’t measure up even with today’s old has-been Shaq…
