He was critized in his country due his poor game at the two first games of the Pre-European Championship, but he played well the third game and he was the leader in the last game vs Estonia. It seems he starts to play well with confidence, like his final games of the ACB.

Next Tuesday Serbia-Israel, Bjelica vs Eliyahu, who is averaging 27 minutes 14.3 pts, 3.8 reb and 2.5 as. Bjelica is averaging 14 min 5.8 pts, 5 reb 1.8 as.

I don't care the criticisms, remember Rubio's last sesion in Europe, I think his play will adapt to the NBA as Rubio did. I think Bjelica is taking a quality leap after his injury at the beginning of the season (knee sprain).

He is a 6' 10 and he is a 3 but could play minutes at 2 or 4.

Kaaaaaaaaahn , bring here Bjelica now. :curse:

Strengths : Size, wingspan, good jump, smart, versatility, ball handler, can create for his teammates.

Weaknesses : Soft, skinny, defense, he needs more quickness in one on one. He needs to be more agressive in both sides of the court.

24 years, 6-10, 224 lib. Many people say his body doesn't fit to the NBA, but he is like Kirilenko, a little bit taller. His defense has improved at the end of the season when he worked his body after a knee injury at November. I love how he can find the open man since the paint. If he could work his body, get muscle and improves his defense he could become in a very interesting player for the Wolves.

i think he's actually got a pretty big frame and a decent amount of weight on him...he just needs to turn it into some muscle.

the serbs are playing israel at the top of the hour i think if anyone wants to watch, ilyahu(sp?) is playing as well

Montenegro won Serbia, Bjelica 20 min, 11 pts and 9 reb

Serbia is a disaster. Is anybody still thinking Teodosic is a interesting player for the NBA?

Well, of course Teodosic is good and intriguing player. At very worst, he still has some elite level skills.

On the other hand, Nemanja does not. Not trolling, but thats just my opinion on him. I am kinda surprised you guys still talking about him so much, I thought he pretty much busted already. He is one of those versatile players who can dominate lesser competitions, while being completely useless against superior talent. His skills are adequate in juniors and all, but against serious PRO's that versatility turns out to be complete nothingness most of the time.

OK, it's your opinion, mine is he has stopped his development because 1) He hadn't the coach confidence his first season in Spain and 2) he injured his knee at the beginning of the last season. He has showed his true level again when he was healthy and playing with continuity. About the Serbian NT I don't know wtf is happening with this team ... If you're Serbian maybe you can tell us something about this. My opinion is Teodosic is like a monkey with pistols.

I think if Bjelica can be a more agressive player then he would be more interesting player than Shved or Kirilenko (with 32 years). But I start to think I'm alone about this. :lol:

Yep, I thought it had direct translation to English. It's referred to somebody who nobody knows how he will behave or about persons who can do the best thing or the worst.

Weird simile. Because I am fairly sure that any monkey with pistols will go on a murderous rampage.

Maybe or no ... if Kate Upton is going to be rap_ed, the monkey shoots to the air and the bullet rebounds against a wall kills the raper, and the monkey puts the gun on your hand, and miss Kate see you with the gun on your hand ... surely she is a very grateful person. :eyebrows:

Estonia won Serbia and Bjelica 27 min, 11 pts, 5 reb, 2 st.

Serbia sucks.

If Serbia loses against Israel next Tuesday then the plavis are out and Kahn can already sign Bjelica.

They must win Israel at home, but Israel is already qualified.

Finally Serbia won Israel and is qualified for EuroBasket 2013. Bjelica 17 min, 12pts, 3 reb, 1 st.

ACB's preseason has started two weeks ago. Kahn : Now or never :curse:

BTW, Hummel, Obradoiro Blusens (my town's team, Santiago de Compostela) has broke his knee, two months out. Minnesota have sent us damaged material. :lol:

The #Twolves had a slight interest in Tuesday's EuroBasket qualifying game between Israel & Serbia. It was Lior Eliyahu vs. Nemanja Bjelica.
