Forget the jumper JV, just keep demanding it in the post and dunking on folks like that last possession.

Broadcasters should double check their facts. Tons of mistakes. For one, Kaun is 7'0, not 6'8... And I believe they also stated Kleiza is 77's born :-?

Yeah I saw the 1977 birth date pop up for Kleiza. Can't blame them though, he moves like a 35 year old.

shots he would normally make though. The way he gets those shots are more important imo.

Liking his footwork in the post.

Those were not easy, at least first one. Rushed on the second attempt, needed to land on his feet.

I think this is the result of strenuous exercise. In qualification we'll see real level of Val. Halftime 8 points. Not bad.
