2 points or just 1?

I haven't seen the whole game but Jonas got a couple quick fouls early on and sat but played pretty well in the 3rd q as far as i could tell through the lagging. not sure we'll see him again though...

Just to add to that^ he missed a few free throws too unfortunately! But he's back on the floor now to close out the game.

Jonas with the unsportsmanlike tech. looks like he was just doing what he was being told to by the bench when he grabbed spanoulis.

Gorgeous is the 2nd coming of Garbo. Someone should really give him a chance.

as i understand Lithuania's strenght lies in its good frontcourt - yet they got outrebounded by greeks

JV went for 6 pts (2/2 2FG, 2/6 FT), 4 reb, 3TO

the greeks played a lot better overall. they may have gotten a few friendly calls but they also just shot 12% from 3. if they had hit a few more of those the game wouldn't ever have been close. jonas seems like he was taken out of the game a lot by the aggressive defense, but so was everybody on LTU. still he was battling and made some good plays. and he had one awesome touch past from the post that i'd like to see again...

i only happened on the game by accident. too bad everyone showing up here for 2pm is going to feel burned...

So much lag + I am on so much pills. It was hard to make things out. I thought Lithuania back court looked fine, while bigs were having a terrible day. Jonas was just there, nothing good nor terrible. Looks like Printezis was killing it, 23/5/2 in 23 minutes.

Reason JV had a bad game is because most of us weren't here to watch and cheer him on. Don't know why someone put the game for 2pm but I missed it because of that.

If someone is bored and doesn't care who's playing, Spain vs Great Britain starts at 3. Should be a pounding.

No idea what happened with the time. The schedule I found said he game was supposed to be at 9 PM Lithuanian time which is 2 PM ET. Sorry if I screwed up people that wanted to see the game, I missed it as well :(
