Blazevic in a Rytas-Zalgiris game played more than Kairys and Echodas combined. Adomaitis was pissed by Echodas's defense a lot before (could be today again as well), so gave the most of his minutes to 18 y.o. center who scored 8 pts very fast, but then struggled. He's slow and can't jump and i want to see a better finishing under the rym as he missed one or two shots when you have to score, but having in mind his age, his big body, his defense and that he already can deliver in LKL (he has scored about 20 pts recently against Dzukija) - it's promising.
Echodas is a disappointment. He looks lost and he can't defend any strong center. Landale pushed him like a baby.

However seems that he took the summer off and did nothing to improve.
I gues Zalgiris was right and he has low ceiling and they won again choosing Masiulis instead of him.

Echodas problem is not only his soft body. He's a pretty low IQ defensive big, he doesn't have natural defensive instincts. He is agile enough though to have a career at 5 and with time he will be pretty good player, but nothing worth discussing regarding NT level.
Masiulis looks good, but I expect even more than he's delivering at the moment. Probably that injury before the season slowed him down a little bit, I expect same brake out performances ahead. And eventually sneaking into 2020 NT roster.LTU NT will snatch Eurobasket 2029 title with this roster:

Originally posted by Mindozas View PostHe had busy summer and impressive start of the season, coming to it in great shape, having major role and lot of playing time. He was drawing like 8-9 fouls per game on average, at times over 10 per game, which was insane, in latest games it dropped to 3-4. Hard to say if it's his normal numbers now and he overperformed, or just physical things playing without rest. We'll get to know in few months I suppose. I kinda lean towards first option, he overperformed while other teams were just trying to gel, it simply looked too good to be trueLTU NT will snatch Eurobasket 2029 title with this roster:

I don't know, Sabeckis sucks. Horrible shooting, doesn't really deliver just came to fill the spot of younger and more talented players. IMO, Prienai had to simply go with Velicka and Kriisa. Glad that Velicka bounced back with 13pts, 8 assists game. Hopefully he'll get back on track after a slump. Let's agree that his 11pts, 4,5a season is still damn impressive for a fresh 20yo. Prienai stands in the middle of the league. Hope he'll work these numbers even higher a little bit and.LTU NT will snatch Eurobasket 2029 title with this roster:
