He can't touch the rim, that's why. With some work on his vert surely he will be able to dunk.
Yeah, that's why he dunked earlier in the game.
Don't fall for that troll

Re: Jonas Valanciunas Summer Discussion Thread (Olympics!)
lol JV was looking to foul out. He had been running on fumes for 3-4 mins.
Great effort though and good overall game. He delivered when it mattered most.
These Dominicans are playing dirty, not taking the loss well.

I was just joking guys... Guess you haven't done your scouting on a 210 cm ish player to think that he can't dunk the basketball.

He signed an extension for 3 years (2+1 club option) in late 2011.

Real wants him, I bet he begins next season in Real or NBA.

Uh, what? We're the ones who said he could dunk a basketball.
That last line was either poorly worded, or you weren't referring to us.

Why did he make a lay-up then? If he could actually dunk, it would be a dunk. Wouldn't he make a dunk?

Jonas playing tough again and again and he doesn't give a damn a bout fouls
If he bangs this way now, how will he play when he will bulk completely? Anyway, good to see Jonas playing his game!

*Hey mods, perhaps make a second Jonas thread exclusively for the Olympics. This one has exceeded 100 pages.
