True that.
As for the record - I'm so happy that Lithuania made the Olympics ! No more do I have to get up at 1-3 am, spend a couple of hours watching basketball and then going back to sleep. It really messed up my sleeping patterns and my biological clock - I can finally rest like a normal person !
JV looked great in this game - he did a good job on defense, not settling for stupid fouls, holding his positions, no necessary jumping trying to go for the blocks. It looks like he really learned from his mistakes.
P.S. And Kleiza told it like it was - Venesuela *****d up organizing this tournament. What pissed me the most is that they had the courtesy to boo Lithuaniana's national anthem - how dense and stupid do you have to be to disrespect another country like that? As our TV commentator and spokesman for press Linas Kunigelis said - they can go f*ck themselves. I guess the players can't wait to leave that country.
