LTU NT and JV at the 2015 European Championship

[VinBaker6]

Looks the exact same.

[RNsteve]

Looks the same to me.

JV + NY pick for Demarcus Cousins

And you actually think we'd get boogie for that? I'm a. jv fanboy but that's not happening..

[Clementine9]

He seems to have a bigger bounce in his step, not as plodding, but the effects of gravity are lesser felt in Europe so it's hard to say how he'll look under North American gravity.

add Ross and I think they would think about it.

Bargnani + Galinari = Awesomeness.

An alien next to Euro guys. Bigger than the centers. Faster than guards.

Italy def going to be a dangerous team. Can score on the perimeter and via posts-up. One issue is they don't really have a good penetrating guard that can get to the basket.

I think pesky defensive teams such as France and Spain will contain Italy's offense. Teams like Lithuania that rely more on the zone can be upset if Italy shoots lights out.

[UcanUwill]

Italy is definitely one of the most interesting teams in the tournament. high floor, low ceiling.

Wouldn't that make them one of the more boring teams?

Oops, I meant high ceiling, low floor... sigh.

With Ross or a pick, that package will get Sacramento talking.

No, it wouldn't. You would need to trade this entire Raptors roster to have a chance at landing DeMarcus.

Yes it would.

Especially if DMC is crying 2 months into the season which I expect him to.

Actually, the gravity of Earth is a little bit stronger in Europe than in North America ((for example, g = 9.820 m/s^2 in Kaunas vs g = 9.807 m/s^2 in Toronto) (http://www.wolframalpha.com/widgets/view.jsp?id=d34e8683df527e3555153d979bcda9cf). But I doubt you can notice this difference as it is within the range of 0.1-0.5%.

[Rappid]

They just drafted WCS and have an (arguably) better version of Ross in Bmac. Thy don't they even consider that trade. DMC is already a TOP10 player. He's a superstar. Just no way.

Man, he is good. We hope Bruno can be like him but he doesn't have anywhere near the same athleticism or the handles.

Lets hope Bruno is NBA player or rotational player. Those Giannis comparisons were silly to begin with.

But I doubt you can notice this difference as it is within the range of 0.1-0.5%.

See there's actually a much higher population density in Europe than in North America, and all those people standing on that side of the Earth naturally push on it when they walk or use their feet in any way. Therefore the same amount of force to uphold the same amount of gravity would be different per person, so even though the actual force of gravity may be calculated to be higher, the gravity divided by the amount of people there will result in JV feeling less gravity on his feet. The only unaccounted factor in this is fat americans, but they usually don't walk much anyway.

Before trying to joke, you should first read about what the gravity is.

Second, North America and Europe are not antipodal to each other, so you should compare the differences between the population densities of Europe vs New Zealand and North America vs Indian Ocean.

Third, the total mass of all human beings is equal to about 0.00000000001% of the Earth mass, so the difference in gravity because of the differences in population densities, will be less than that by a few orders of magnitude.

I don't want to embarrass you but I'm pretty sure SaveTheHens invented gravity.

If the New york pick is top 10, i don't see why that wouldn't bring a converstation.

JV is still a decent centre in this league. Add in our pick next year or Ross and there's no reason for them to entertain that trade.
