he's got to makes those jumpshots

He should make something like 65% of them. However, the sample size now is 1.

Also, it's easy to shoot in one motion as opposed to doing a pump fake or a jab. He needs to be decisive as he catches it. The one he just attempted was a hesitant one.

I'm not worried

just hate those Bargs-style unnecessary pump fakes

Sabonis' daughter... not bad

LTU needs to pull away on this momentum. 10 pts is nothing

Jonas' defense has been really impressive this game.

He's really doing a good job of sprinting back on the recover after the hedge timing it perfectly and walling off Bo Mccalebb many times from turning the corner. Post defense has been great denying the post entry pass like when the ball is above the free-throw line he'd 3/4 straddle fronting the high side preventing his man from going middle centering his chest at his man's shoulder lane with arms extended. I know Macedonia's bigs don't threaten much inside regardless it's great understanding.

Donut has learned the Chris Bosh head snap back flop. Two fouls drawn on nothing.

Hate the double Lav bro combo. Should have Javtokas in there for one of them as they're bad interior defenders.

Bring back JV and Dmo. Also Kleiza should play SF, not PF.

Great D on the perimeter by Motiejunas.

In other news, SLO-SPA game is very intense, and comes to an end.

Am I the only one who just saw the Jonas/Donut TV commercial?

Also, Nice block/ Defensive awareness by JV!

So why did the coach start Javtokas again???

Wow it looks like Slovenia will upset Spain. Goran Dragic went untouched on that reverse layup.

Slovenia beat Spain

78-69 (was close until very late in game)

Teams are well balanced in this tournament.

Why on earth isn't JV in the game right now? He's been a beast at both ends.

Friendly reminder that the former Yugoslavia is the greatest sports (former) country on the planet.

Carry on.
