But hey, it's got to be tough playing with different rules and in a different country.

They didn't get smashed. The final score was 105-99 for the Raptors. How could 6 point win be a smashing considering the things you mentione like different rules etc.? <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Zalgiris played 3 games against NBA teams during last pre-season (against Warriors, Raptors and Wizards). The game against Raptors was the closest. Another thing was that Zalgiris had a few new players and they were just starting to play together.

Oh, I didn't watch the whole thing, I stopped midway through, and a youtube comment said they got smashed.

Zalgiris lost? OH NO! Not that surprising, I've seen it before, but they are a good team.
