What they said about slokar ...
been extremely well coached and he seems to be a team oriented player. He is just extremely active ... rugged interior presence...
...Never the less, he's not a great shooter yet...
...Can put the ball on the floor and go strong to the hoop....Decent mobility, rather fast for a big man, he can run the floor quite well,
what they say about Jonas
incredibly intense competitor, a boundlessly energetic player who never stops working for a moment and whose presence is constantly felt on the court.
...Valanciunas' game needs refinement, particularly his ball-handling and passing abilities. He turns the ball over at a pretty high rate and definitely has a ways to go in terms of improving his basketball IQ and overall experienc
...has had consistent foul problems over the course of the year -- another reason that his playing time has been limited. In the Euroleague, for example, he commits approximately one foul for every 4 minutes (watch out Amir)....
Valanciunas is a frequent target for opposing teams to post up due to his narrow frame and lack of experience, especially in the Euroleague, where almost every team has a bulky old school back-to-the-basket pivot who can simply overpower Valanciunas in one-on-one situations....
Valanciunas attempted only 8 (of 427 total possessions) jumpers all season
