I think you guys have to be patient with him, it will take some time to adapt

not rly, he already speaks english :)


I didn't mean he will have language issues. More like time to adapt to NBA basketball and new environment. :wink:
What I see on this board lately is that JV is seen as some savior Jesus who will eliminate all problems and Raps will win it all next season :lol: Think it will take a couple years before we see that potential unravel. So I guess we just need to control our expectations and don't start saying "oh boy he's crap" if he doesn't start producing 20/10 instantly. From what I've seen this board changes it's opinion on game-to-game basis from one extreme to another.

This team is frustrating to watch. With a fresh young guy like Val + this years draft pick + good nba player FA signing + Barganni starting to look like an allstar this team is going to be exciting again.

Has this game already been played?

I checked the Rytas web site and the schedule says they don't play until the 7th.
