He's one of those guys who's just dying to be on the floor at all times.


Yeah you could tell he was frustrated coming out of the game since he just got in.

Awful shot selection by D-Mo hahaa... but he made it.


Time was running out. He didn't have much choice, did he? :)

It's a rough game right now. Both sides are just throwing their arms/hands around.

You know, when we got MU signed up I thought it would be a great idea to wait until after Eurobasket to try to trade Kleiza.. I thought his value had no where to go but up.

Turns out I was wrong!

He released it with over 3 seconds left so maybe could've had 1 extra pass. But he's not a playmaker and that's not a lot of time so its okay. He also made the shot more difficult by taking that extra dribble.

It's fine. Just hate when he shoots 3s b.c. he makes one or two and thinks he is good at that range.

There goes LTU starting to chuck 3s when they have a huge advantage inside. This is the type of game where you could excel giving JV or D-Mo isos in the post

JV needs to stop helping so much. He should stay back and protect the rim.

Yep, Belgium doesn't really have a chance of stopping him. They have to hope that he just doesn't play well.

I love watching him when he keeps the game simple. One of the ways he does that is using the natural tools he has like his length! Sometimes I feel like he gets worked up against some competition and starts forcing the game when he doesn't need to.

Wow he's really tearing Belgium apart.

Kept them all simple right near the rim, and 4 free throws I think (or 6?). Like someone above mentioned, he's got such a soft touch.
