He doesn't tend to start. Don't remember the last time he did. At least 3 games ago but I think more.

Damn Kleiza, misses a jumper, forces a tough one from the side and misses again. Then on a fastbreak blows a layup... gotta dunk that.

#11 on Ukraine looks like a little boy.

LTU is messing around out there. I guess they want to lose to increase their chances of playing Spain in the 1 round of the QT. Stupid.

Is the camera crew here the same one as the Raptors?

Was thinking something similar. I think Jonas got an offensive rebound and then he lost it somehow. Hard to tell when you're looking at a floor level view through 5 players.

He has been advising the team for like 5 years. And officially a coach since 2011. Have you been living under a rock?

Nice pass by D-Mo at the end there. He looks good when he does the little things. I HATE when he shoots 3s, its a low quality shot.

So JV has 3 stitches on the top of his head. Badass

I like that they're doing the DM-JV combo more now

Not liking the flow to this game seems too rigid

I've lost interest in this tournament. I just want training camp to start already...

I wonder why the coach decided to take JV out now. Does Javtokas usually come in the game this early? I'm thinking the coach wanted to put Lavrinovic back in but he already has 2 fouls. Should just keep JV in?

I think he is managing minutes. As long as LTU wins then they should finish first and LTU is still comfortably in control.

Both teams have advanced so there isn't a sense of urgency for either team.

JV also got 3 stitches from the game against Belgium. Still may be healing. And Javtokas is a bigger body against Ukraine's big.

So close, yet so far away..

Kleiza sucks so bad. Just keep D-Mo and JV on the court, that #15 guy is just a sad excuse of a basketball player.

Javtokas is just old... he was pretty solid back in the day: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robertas_Javtokas

If LTU loses this it will bite them in the QT matchups.

Goddamn D-Mo shooting 3s wtf... the guy makes like 1/3 when wide open.

JV4MVP · Post #2018 » by **JV4MVP** » Sun Sep 15, 2013 4:48 pm

D-Mo mad hahah

Epic camera work. Texan English haha... That's not a f***ing foul??

Lol at them catching Mike Fratello cursing too. Wish it was like this in the NBA... "stop jumping in the air and turning it f****** over" :lol:

HSOB SIRHC · Post #2019 » by **HSOB SIRHC** » Sun Sep 15, 2013 4:52 pm

why was D-Mo complaining after that dunk? I don't think anyone touched him.
