He has barely played.

Wow LTU is going to loss this game. All of the momentum is on Italy's side. Crazy

It is frustrating to watch how LT guards completely and utterly ignoring JV.

They were ignoring the other guy a lot too in the first half (#7). Lav, is it?

Lithuania has lost their game. Kalnietis is just chucking wildly.

I have a bad feeling about this one. Italy has momentum and LT is playing one on one basketball which is never our strength.

JV can't score on isos and LTU should only pass when he is WIDE open. JV is no Gasol or Krstic yet to be feed the ball like that. JV needs to focus on rebounding and playing good D.

LTU forced interior passes in the first round and they sucked. They stopped doing that in the 2nd ronud and they've looked better.

How can he do better when he is thrown in for 3-4 minutes at a time and never gets the ball?

I don't understand how any of that was Jonas' fault? His team is turning the ball over, taking crap shots and not playing smart all together. The Lith. Coach is a bastard for putting the blame on Jonas when other players screwed up the lead and are playing like utter crap down the stretch. (i'm not saying jonas isn't having a bad game, but this is far, far away from his fault)

I think it's impossible to say any player is playing like **** when they've barely played. Especially considering the point spread isn't changing much no matter who's playing. Unless you expect Jonas to go in there and completely turn the tables? Which would be impossible when all he's doing is setting screens.
