i think its 7' 6" or 7' 4" i cant remember which
Jonas seems pretty tall compared to the Gasol Brothers in that game..
While Kanter seems a bit short against his opponents in the 3 games thus far...
I thought they were similar height? Can anyone confirm?

I wasn't that impressed he is skinny
Right now, Valanciunas looks like a PF at the pro level. He doesn't have much of a back-to-basket game and isn't heavy enough to establish deep position against bigger players. He's got long strides and long arms though. He's got good touch around the hoop. He also has a good motor. He seems focused, his movement is pretty efficient, and he seems to be improving. He's learning how to use his length. He gets good position quite often by outrunning everyone down court. He could be an ideal center on a fast-break team.
If I had to predict, I would say Kanter will average more rebounds, but it's tough to tell who will be the better go-to player on offense. Valanciunas might also be better defensively given his length and motor. He's showing Tyson Chandler potential on both ends.
JV got most of his points against the second unit or on fouls. I didn't see him put a great move on one of the Gasols. Mostly he dives into the lane and draws contact with his quickness.

The block on AK was off glass, a goaltend in the NBA, but he still came over to help pretty quick.

You are right. He won't survive in the NBA. He may as well hang it up. It's over...
