Haha...you know Val really doesn't get a lot of air from his standing jump. Hopefully that doesn't become a problem when he's trying go up strong against NBA-calibre athletes.

Jonas has great awareness also. Thats why he gets open a lot. Great off ball player.

even he gets open lot of times, its like he is still overlooked by his team..
hopefully, Casey develops this guy, cause hes really good..
I expect a lot of Jonas in his rookie season, he is gonna be one of the rookies with more pressure..

I suspect they are resting Jonas today, letting him play around for around 15-20 minutes. Rytas has a game tomorrow too.

Love the kid but he flops a lot - he'll do great in the NBA.

If anyone on Rytas was really trying in this game, they would have to invoke the mercy rule.

nelabai · Post #895 » by **nelabai** » Sat Apr 28, 2012 6:00 pm

They play very physical with Val, pushing him around, Jonas is angry cause he is not getting any calls. Got to get used to that Val, it's only gets tougher in the NBA.

Manu Ginobili and Danilo Gallinari flop -- they have been successful in the league

Missed game myself. But thats what happened. Jonas with 7 points (on 7 shots apparently) and 5 rebounds in 18:28 minutes. Baltic league semifinals, Rytas crushed Latvians, 89-61, advance to finals, play Zalgiris tomorrow.

hope Big V brings it on tomorrow, but more important, get the W..
