Looks like Shved had a horrible game. JV's line is pretty damn impressive. 17 points on 3/4 lol.

Karasel and Jonas really didn't do CAVS management the justice in this one.

Get a time machine and take him back to the 90's.

Just watching the game, this guys motor is bananas. He's already in the nba with million of dollars playing in a prettymeaningless game and is way more skilled than everyone on the court yet he's playing harder than all of them. He's everywhere on the court. And his rotations look night and day from last year.

JV should watch a lot of Duncan tape. In terms of physique and mobility, I think Duncan comes the closest compared to the other great big men.

He doesn't need to dunk it all the time or do anything fancy. Just stick to the fundamentals, make the easy play. I hope Duncan retires soon so we can hire him as a personal coach.

Why would he do that? I'd assume the Spurs would hire him in a second.

Thanks for that, DAGman. I think the last time I enjoyed watching basketball this much was when Steve Nash and the Phoenix Suns were at the peak of their high octane variety of play. I just love watching Jonas play so much.

In the sense how Hakeem works with all these guys in the off-season. We wouldn't be able to get him permanently or anything.

Lol damn.. I was looking forward to some nice highlights but then I realized he scored most of his 17 pts from the FT line and only 3FG.. nice blocks though! :lol:

No need to show the free throws in the highlight packages. Would much rather see how he drew the foul than the FT points themselves.

Is Jonas playing PF today? he is starting with Javtokas, other center.
