Didn't look all that spectacular TBH. Was just average. Domantas Sabonis looked better, but of course expectations for him is way lower.
im a huge fan of Sabonis hoping he falls to the Bucks next draft but it won't happen

Ajinca will miss Eurobasket. France is still full of options - Traore, Mahinmi, Seraphin...

One thing I think we can all agree on is that everyone here has had at least one teacher, maybe 2 or 3, who looks exactly like coach Kazlauskas.

Whole Lith team looked absolutely trash. JV got his numbers but looked bad in my opinion. Passive, without energy. Sabonis should get more touches as he and Seibutis are the best Lith players so far.

Doesn't feel like Lithuania uses him much differently than the Raps to be honest.

Yes. France already announced their final roster, obviously Ajinca will be replaced. They are probably the main Eurobasket favorites.

Jones does look like he lost some weight from his summer camp video (didn't watch him play though)

Best Lithuanian players were Seobutis and Sabonis Jr. Val had good stats but his d was again a big suspect with that overhelping of his.

'Have you been watching NT games at all? Javtokas is one of the worst players on D currently, JV had a terrible game on d today and Javtokas played bit better there today but overall Javtokas was a piece of crap in most of the games in terms of defense. Certainly looks like a guy fitting for his age.

Total lack of awareness on D.
I've been saying that for awhile now.

Did a good job on his hedge from what I can see, just didn't recover earlier like he should have so it completely broke down. But as far as disrupting the ball handler it was good. As far as JV hedging I'd be most worried about that. They've got him hedging and that's not something he's really done. Not surprising if he doesn't know when his job on the hedge is properly done. That will come with repetition.
EDIT: Point is, I'm not taken anything from a broken play. Those happen. I care more about things like IF he's hedging and where he needs the most work. Not expecting anything from a guy who has hedged -50% of the since his rookie season.

He has hedged 5-6 times in this game, Dirk just showed one or two plays wich collapsed. Other ones were ok imo.
