    We'll have an incredible team. We will field basically whole world class unit (Kaspa, Indrusaitis, Buzelis, Murauskas, Sabonis) and the guys who will get up from the bench (let's say, whatever the rotation...) will be still elite line-up (Joku, Rubsta, Sirvydis, Buzelis, Tubelis).

    We will have some special presence of length, skill and motor. I will actually want to see how 198cm Kaspa, 204cm Rubsta, 209cm Buzelis, 204 Murauskas, 208cm Tubelis running into offense, transition offense. Good luck stopping that combination. Relentless motor in each piece. I even feel that to certain extent with Tubelis we will be playing smoother basketball and there won't be any issues to mesh. Sabonis very specific player, it's hard to utilize his constant touching basketball which is deadly in NBA, but complicated in FIBA. To certain extent Sabonis has to give on play making in FIBA and go dominate pick and rolls and paint area.
    What concerns me is that Team Lietuva might not have a physically dominant low post player once Jonas Valančiūnas retires. His absence was really felt in the loss to Puerto Rico when he could still have been a wrcking ball down low despite Puerto Rico clogging up the paint.

    Admittedly Motiejus Krivas might grow and develope into that role.
