  • Hepcat,

    Plenty of role players among my mentioned. Not a single super star actually...

    Sedekerskis one of the most efficient Liths in EL. Tubelis may be The National Player of NCAA. That says a lot. At least Sedekerskis just simply deserves a chance, just as never delivering R. Giedraitis deserved only because of playing well in EL.

    As for D. Giedraitis I said only that he might be. Don't look at stats when it comes to him. He's Butkevicius kinda guy. He's a hardworker and won't be filling efficiency sheets. He already plays best perimeter defense from all our guards. Only Butkevicius competes with him at the perimeter defense. Giedraitis is even better on ball defender than Dimsa who is very solid defensively in EL this season. Offensively he lacks yet confidence at the highest level, but overall with his decision making and lock down perimeter defense he's better than Normantas/Kariniauskas and such.

    As for the last part. I didn't really get your point. I'm saying take one or two most talented youngsters to the camp. That will benefit you long term. Rubstavicius already showed a lot of promise playing for U20, Lietkabelis and against Hungary.
    LTU NT will snatch Eurobasket 2029 title with this roster:

    Jokubaitis, Marciulionis, Laurencikas
    Indrusaitis, Brazdeikis, Rubstavicius
    Buzelis, Lelevicius
    Murauskas, Sirvydis
    Tubelis, Krivas

I believe Velicka would be the best PG today against France.
      Both Kariniauskas and Zemaitis with 0eff after 3 quarters. Classy. I can understand Rubstavicius being a little bit too excited, but those two...They already played in major tournaments with NT jerseys...

      Trash...

      • And then Wemby closed the game...

        I also can say that Albicy was probably the key of the game. It's amazing how a player can change the pace of the game with on ball perimeter defence. He and others shut down our PGs completely. Something like that Marciulionis was doing for U20 NT this summer. That's why I wait him in the NT when he will be bullying the opponents defensively.

        LTU and Kemzura deserves credit that they fought well with very limited roster and shots didn't fall tonight. It could be even a win. Rubstavicius, IMO, once again showed promise despite visible excitement, his energy, athleticism, couple of assists, mid range jimmy, steal was still refreshing enough, deserved more than 9min cause Zemaitis was compete trash with 3tos and 0 assists. As 20yo he's roaring with raw potential. I would also like to mention Berucka. He's the only GOOD defender on this roster. Maybe one day senior NT will need such specialist. He can be an ass to opponents with his elite defense.

        Don't expect anyone aside Kuzminskas in the NT camp...

            Normantas was good tonight, but completely untranslatable to A team. Decent piece for B NT and so will remain for a while cause there's 2025 EB qualification on it's way.

                Let's just say that both these Volkswagen and Volvo have no place in NT garage.

                • Normantas deserve to get invite to main camp.

                  He put huge plus in NT coaches eyes after this game.

                  Dimsa,Normantas can be interesting fight in NT camp for last guard spot.

                  Dimsa is early favourite now,but Normantas is alpha by character he will not be affraid and for sure will try to win place in NT.

                  Other 4-5 candidates kemzura named himself.

                  For fight B team shown tonight have only good things to say.They really cared and really fought hard against France athletes

                  • I agree. Margiris Normantas stood out on the floor today and merits a look at the national team camp. Quite simply he may be among the best guards present this summer. Who knows which others might not be available due to injury or other "pressing" commitments?

                    Vaidas Kariniauskas seemed to be doing a decent job running the offence but once again couldn't make any shots leaving his prospects to graduate to the main team bleak. And Kristupas ?emaitis was simply horrible.

                              • Brazdeikis is without a doubt the most talented LTU backcourt player but he is frighteningly inefficient. He must nail those wide open shots.

                                I like Butkevicius too but he shouldnt be allowed to shoot at all.
