He moves incredibly well for a guy 7-2. That is what is most impressive about him. He spun on Odom and kicked out to a wing which was impressive. Offensively he is ready to come over. Not as skinny as a lot of the previous clips of him have shown. I wonder when he is coming over.

A year ago he started to work under speciall program with Croatian NT conditional coach and slowley results are starting to show. His ofensive skill talent is unquestinable, only is questonable how much can he impruve physicley and not to lose his speed and cordination. He did good considering this is his first ofuiciall game at some top level championship and that it's bean only about 5 mouths when he started to play euroleague basketball and he is still adapting to physicall level of top level basketball

When he will come? Knowing him he won't rush things as he likes go step by step

P.S. Odom and Chandller after game said he could play emidetley in NBA

He definitely seems like a legit NBA player, and likely at least a borderline starter. Can't ask for much more than that in the second round.

Win.

Liked what I saw, was expecting much worse. He looks like he could be a legit NBA starting big after a year or so in the NBA. Good 2nd round pick as usual for Utah.

His length and offensive skills will not hurt the Jazz, that's for sure.

I wish he was with the team already.

There's nothing wrong with not putting all your hopes and dreams into Ante Tomic. I'm skeptical myself. But the Koufos thing was a joke. It was funny that this no-name white kid who looks like a condor yelled BOOM BITCH*S when he finally made a layup. What a bad*ss.

I liked that joke and you hurt my feelings.

It's funny, I watched a Tomic video and thought he looked a little like Gasol. I then watched a Koufos video and he looked even better. He was draining 3s, blocking shots, moving well.

I saw a bit of this his first year in Utah, but, then he turned into jelly.

Not sure what happeded to the kid. I'm guessing Jerry Sloan. Hopefully he'll revive his potential elsewhere.

Jerry Sloan? C'mon. He might swear a bit but it's not like he pokes them with cattle prods. He just didn't get better.

I think Jerry is a bit of a Soul Crusher. Certain folks just wilt under him.

Well, what's the excuse of every other mid to late pick big man who fail in this league? That's not a demographic with a high batting average.

Well, some guys just suck. Kufos seemed to actually get worse.

I agree. Giricek is a good example. And Ostertag. Tag went from Hakeem and Shaq stopper in the playoffs of 1997 and 1998 to a league-wide joke, and I think Sloan had a lot to do with it.
