JV in the interview says that he was pretty much sleeping for these two days and not eating anything.... and that he's going to a certain room after an interview

I think JV did a really good job today, I think this could be his best game in this eurobasket so far. He wasn't in perfect condition, but he certainly did more than anyone could hope.

Valdemaras Chomicius played in USSR NT 1979-88

As for current PG's, Kalnietis just returned after surgery and Lekavicius 12 monts ago played in 2nd Lithuanian league. Everything will be alright,I promise

Passing out of the doubles was surprisingly decent by JV.

That bit of text looks like it was clutch.


It was huge - a game saver, and the coach thanked him publicly after the game.

Dropping weight.

Any highlights from today's game?

so the answer to JV's woes is to chug down laxatives before every game

That block by JV at the end of 4th made me so happy watching this in real time.

He was sick with rotovirus too, first thing he said during the after game interview was he needed to "sit in a certain room for a little bit" :lol:

Also JV played much smarter than he usually plays.

Great lateral movement in the clip right after that. Moves his feet well.
