One was offensive

LTU needs to push as the point difference matters. They need to get this to +20. Montenegro and Bosnia are better than Latvia, regardless what happened earlier in the tournament.

JV finishes the first half with 9 pts, 6 rbs, 1 blk, 1 TO... +7 for the team in 15 minutes

Man he just seems to go on these FTA rampages.. I hope he does that in the NBA, it's gonna cause a lot of trouble since most teams barely have one C big enough to match up with him.

9pts, 6reb, 1 blk in half. 5/8 FT shooting though:/. There is hoping for first double double in tournament for JV.

His block earlier resembled JaVale McGee's. It looked like he palmed the ball.

Those are beneficial, but he also tends to brick his FT's recently and on a consistent basis, which isn't a good sign.

Yeah not happy to see it either.. the way he was shooting last year, I was hoping he'd end up as like an 80% guy which is ridiculous at his position. We might have to settle for 65-70% instead, which is still pretty good for a C.

But who knows.. he's so young he might get to 80 anyway before he hits his prime.

Jonas with 9/6 at the half not bad. Missed 3 free throws could be 12/6. If he keeps this production up he could end up with 18/12 to end the game.

Jonas needs to take that 12-14 ft jumper. They daring him to shoot it.

Give Jonas' new muscles time to memorize his shooting technique.

LTU needs to show a perimeter game to be able to dump the ball to the post like that.

They're putting themselves in a position to lose.
