Do not forget Olympic games. Thats where Davis and Jonas should met for the first time. USA has no second Center, so I expect Davis to play there.
Davis is definitely better IMO. Without a doubt.
Jonas has some serious red flags. Overrated athlete, constant fouling, defends with his arms, crap pick and roll defense, and overall defensive awareness is kinda out of sync.
Talking about areas where Jonas is better, his body is more NBA ready, I think his touch around the rim is better, his rebounding is probably better although his numbers clearly regressed last year. He is definitely a better pick and roll player, his post moves are more polished, and I dont know about Davis, but I am pretty sure Jonas is a better passer out of double teams.
The best part is, Davis played against kids, Jonas played against men and yet their stats are almost identical. That gives hope. Jonas faced not only NBA all stars, but also
Destroyed few other promising NBA youngsters like Meyers Leonard and Nikola Vucevic. He is so much better than other centers his age, thats not even funny.
