Pad that FT%, come on.

EDIT: DAMN IT!

JV looked gassed on that last possession.

Very sloppy and ugly game in general. Expected at early stage of preparation for the tournament, no real chemistry or execution yet, lots of run and gun so far. Jonas did ok except his free throw shooting was off.

Not watching but damn good stat, except the FT. Did he get these points from posting up down low?

Vals stats (officially) are

12 pts (4/5 FG's, 4/9 FT's), 11 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 assist, 1 steal, 2 TO and 3 fouls in 21 minutes.

He did hit one midrange jumper but the rest of the points came from the paint.

He didn't really do much post moves. When he tried to do something inside, he usually got fouled. Most of his points came from him getting the ball inside and just laying it in.

His best move was switching to his left hand and making a runner. It was pleasant for the eye cause centers who can equally well use both hands are rarity these days. He also had a soft semi-hook with his right. But most of the time when he tried to do anything he got fouled.

I didn't find it awkward at all! Not beyond the usual awkwardness of seeing a lanky seven footer move with fluidity and grace. :love:

He posted a joakim noah statline in 21 minutes, not bad even though the comp shouldn't be as good as the nba.

Could someone make some JV highlights for those who didn't watch the game?
