rytas is screwed

According to a couple of sources. Rytas has interest in Keydren Clark. He's a good point guard and he could help them a lot. What do you guys think?

He's a good scorer, but not a good pg imo. quite selfish and not very creative. still better than nothing though. I like el-amin better

I'm hearing about D.J. Strawberry... quite a name...

Lietuvos Rytas lands Karolis Petrukonis from BC Perlas

Lietuvos Rytas could have reached an agreement with D.J. Strawberry



http://www.krepsinis.net/news.php?news_id=163165

Lietuvos Rytas signs D.J. Strawberry until the ed of the season



http://bc.lrytas.lt/index.php?option=com...11&lang=lt



Strawberry played the role of swingman in college but on the professional level he's combo guard. I think that he'll help Rytas a lot on defense and offense but everything will depend on how quick he adjusts to the team

Today he made his debut in Rytas. Great game and it's very strange to see how fast he adapted to team...he should be great...his potential is enormuous...too bad contract is only till the end of the season.



D.J Strawberry today scored 9pts, got 3 reb, 3 as and 13 eff in almost 19 minutes. <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> He looked very good no matter that opponent wasn't very good.

Couple crossovers and lay-ups, and triple. That's not bad for a star I agree, but it's far to soon to judge his potential. My fist impression, another non passing American player with solid offensive abilities. Faster and way more athletic than El- Amin.



Rytas is improving sharply. I mean I see now smart combinations that is finally working. There's connection between players and Rytas finally resembles last year's team. Hopefully Gecevičius will get back soon. I'm wondering if trifunovic finally listening to his assistants or is he not that bad coach after all. Rytas won't make miracles in Euroleague again, but they will give solid fight in BBL and LKL finals. Their zone defence is still not working though.



Kelys finally played this season. Maybe they should loan him to Perlas now, while he won't get enough minutes with Starwberry and El- Amin on the team.

Highlights of the game, including Strawberry points.

Did you watch that game? He's passing skills are pretty good from I saw yesterday.

You right, he made few sharp passes, but I'm talking about creativity and ability to pass in regular basis, something most American guys don't do usually. We'll see.

Strawberry is a good reinforcement for Rytas. He'll help Rytas a lot. Strawberry is a good player and the more he plays the better he gets. Rytas has done a great job by signing him but he'll need time to be better and adjust to the playing style and then everything will work out well

StraightF, what you will say now? <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Ha ha, it's only second game for him, he's only one week in this team and he does great job... <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> sharp passes, great speed, good body and other pluses... <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />)) and he plays fast ball what makes our team better.

Dj Strwaberry played good last night and he will get better the more that he gets used to the playingstyle. But Strawberry will also have a couple of bad games because he wants to force things. He will need have to show consistency in his games and then he'll be good.

Seems like a good shot by Vainauskas. He gives athleticism that Rytas was lacking a little bit and seems that he can provide different thing on the court. Rytas is turning to the nice team in the second half of the season - if only they would have two years older Valančiūnas <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I'm serious. JV isn't on radar for a long time and there are some rumour on him... I don't think GV is collecting players...probably that's move by Purlys..
