JV strikes again

Clementine9 · Post #222 » by **Clementine9** » Tue Aug 6, 2013 5:27 pm

Left handed hook (push shot maybe more accurate?) from 6 feet out...

I think he stayed behind to work on slimming down to weight both he and the raptors staff was comfortable with. In summer league he wasn't exactly mobile, and they need him to be on the defensive end.

JV getting away with alot of pushes that would be called in the NBA imo.

He's going to be seeing in more often. He'll get used to them and soon he'll be able to feel when they'll be coming.

Haha JV working the refs. You can't say no to those looks and that charm. He's going to the free throw line the next time he touches the ball.

Lithuania has secretly been developing a super genetics program and leads the world in all areas of genetic science now. Their aim is world domination.

THe lack of competent PGs is a tradition in lithuania, with the exception of Jasikevicius i can't remember any really good PG since the independence. It's amazing in such a basketball crazy country that they can't produce consistently good players in the position that requires less freaky height.
