    A three from Pap early in the first quarter. I hope he doesn't have foul trouble again.

    Thanks HMMMMM...
    anyways just a few thoughts on watching the first few minutes with Pap and Goran/Zoran... Papa plays harder on defense and rotates well... However he seems to be a poorly conditioned athlete... He has the tools to be a good NBA player.

    It kinda seems like Goran is going to have to carry his team, or just a slow start.

    13 Points for Papanikolaou in the first half.

    Gogi with an NBA distance 3 pointer. Nice.

    Zoran on the other hand gets a jumpshot blocked...but redeems himself with a drive.

    Lol, two good defensive plays by Giannis and they take him out for Kostas

    ---------------------

    From what little I've seen, I'm impressed with Kostas' defensive rotations and his determination to hustle down the court. No doubt he'll fit in nicely with Harden and co.

    Because offensively, Giannis cannot do much in half court. Kostas is running through screens, searching for miss-matches and can hit an open three pointer.

    ^ What you say is true. It's safe to say that I haven't been this optimistic about an international talent since Scola!

    Awesome. I'm pretty stoked about Papa. He has the edginess that we'll need. Similar to Bev. Hopefully his game translates well to the nba. Very excited.

    thanks so much for the link....but can anyone attach a link where we can see box scores from this tournament. it is like it doesn't exist. do not know how you got it, but this site won't work for future games. very frustrating that you have nba players playing in a tournament and there is no way to see how they are doing unless you go to a slovanian website that is not in English.

    I have now been searching for over an hour. Stats for this tournament are not available on any sites in English. If anyone can post a link, I would owe them big time. It is hard to believe in this day of age that you can't get a box score for a public event with multiple NBA players.
