When team scores 100pts vs Serbia in 40min game and 5 players score more then 13pts limited is not the right word to describe that team. LT is one of the favorites to win it all.
So Kanter sucked today?

He had no playing time, only 10 min.
Not enough playing time to really respond. He seemed to play much better D against Noah than I thought he would at this juncture. Also hit a real nice contested 12 (or so) footer, with seemingly much improved confidence. Just not much time.

enes played very solid on both ends of the floor, but he did only get like 8 minutes or so... but again, the turkish coach and the turkish guards sucked. they are so horrible, taking threes after threes, i will never watch this turkish team again... disgusting!

God damn Jonas is a beast. That length is insane. He moves incredibly fluid (other than looking extremely awkward running the open floor (but even then, he isnt that slow, he just looks funny as hell)) for being so long. May be my favorite Non-Jazz player once he comes over. Too bad he plays for the Raptors. Hopefully he gets traded to the Western Conference eventually and he and Enes can develop some sort of rivalry, similar to the old Dwill vs CP3.
Jonas looks pretty good. He reminds me of a slightly quicker Tyson Chandler with less lift. He has great energy. He didn't really display a lot of skill in his offense besides good timing on the pick-and-roll and good coordination, but he's only 19. He seems to have more confidence than Enes at this point, which is to be expected with his playing experience so far and the home crowd. It'll be interesting to see how he does away from Lithuania in the NBA, but he looks like he has some good stuff going for him.
I could see Jonas developing into a more fiery,defensively capable Pau Gasol.

I said before draft that he will turn into longer Noah with better offense, so Noah/Gasol hybrid seems pretty fair especially if he develops more post moves and back to the basket game.
