I can't find the source but I did read that the Raps don't expect him back for game 1. In my opinion we should have him back for game 3, just in time to finish off the sweep at home

Dwane Casey says he does not foresee having JV available in first two games, but not committing to that.

Casey says won't rule out Valanciunas for series but can't see Game 1 or likely Game 2 either.

The full list of players ever to grab 25% of available rebounds in 10+ playoff games:

Jonas Valanciunas.

Just for fun, the list of guys to be over 20% TRB in 10+ playoff games.

Such a goddam bummer that he isn't playing.

I LOVE JV but... Trade him for a top 5 pick?

Why would you do that? The draft is weak after Simmons and Ingram. JV is one of the best young big men in the NBA and he still hasn't hit his peak yet.

I wouldn't trade him for anyone in the draft.

classic over-reaction post right here.

Bismack had a great game. One of the best performances of the playoffs.

but as well as he played we needed every rebound and we had demar and lowry taking and fortunately hitting long 2s to win because he doesn't provide any threat on offense.

You won't get the high-flying blocks from JV but his overall rim protection has been just as good or better than Biyombo's in the playoffs, plus he scores and hits FTs. And, he's a better prospect than anyone in this draft, i think.

I'm still trying to imagine a way we can keep both Bis and JV on the team and find minutes for both. But it relies on having a way to effectively use them together for ~8-10 mins per game, which currently isn't possible.

Why would we trade the guy who's been our best player in pretty much every playoff game he's played this year, who has a team friendly contract for the next 3 years?
