OK, verstile LO who can play SF and PF with nice assists, or Siskauskas aka "Baltic Pippen", an athletic and versatile player who is SF but is very usefull as a SG and PG?
Who is your choice?

LO isn`t clutch player, and he has low IQ sometimes, Siskauskas is known as a born leader, high IQ player...

So, both have many weapons, but who is your choice, according to their SKILLS, IQ and LEADERSHIP?

My choice is...hmmm, it`s not easy... Siskauskas.

Your choice?

Siskauskas is Lithuanian and he's playing for CSKA Moscow. He's one of the most versatile forwards in Europe. But come on, Lamar is 6-10, Sis' is 6-6. I even doubt Sskauskas' chances in the NBA. I would pick Toni Kukoc(who's a former Jugoplastika player) over Lamar any day though.

lol wrong forum maybe? I think siskauskas is a helluva player but if LO doesn't have his brainfarts he's better

If Siskauskas is half as good as a "Baltic Pippen", he'd be in the NBA.

IMO he's almost as good or at least as good as jasekiviciuos and both of them are playing really great in FIBA basketball but sometimes changing between both systems is way too much to handle for one player. I haven't seen siskauskas play except for his NT so I don't know if his game would work in NBA but he's one of the best players in europe

^ You hit on something that I don't think Team USA gets enough slack for having to deal with in international competition.

While it's generally the same game, FIBA and NBA basketball are drastically different. Force European teams to play with a longer 3-point line, which in turn strains their shooting range and requires them to cover more court defensively, and it's an entirely different equation.

As such, I'd love to see how an international competition would play out under NBA rules, with NBA officials.

Anthony Parker was the Euroleague MVP, and is a role-player in the NBA. There are zero Euro players who are even close to Lamar.
