Jonas Valanciunas 19 Points Full Highlights (3/27/2015)

There was recently penned an article about why Jonas Valanciunas maybe doesn’t get as many minutes as everyone thinks he should. The reason? According to on-off stats, he totally tanks the team on both sides of the ball whenever he’s on the court despite his good box-score numbers! I call it the “Brandon Knight Effect”….

Jonas Valanciunas Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (1/12/2015)

Jonas Valanciunas had grown to like the sport of American football. He still did not understand the nuances of the game, or, for that matter, any but the most basic aspects of the game at all. That was okay with him. Sports weren’t about deep analysis and careful scrutiny. They were about having fun and…

Jonas Valanciunas 21 Points Full Highlights (1/4/2015)

It was television time once again in the Valanciunas apartment. Taking up his usual spot on the couch with his cat, Arvydas, purring happily next to him, he enswathed himself in blankets and cracked open the first beer. ESPN was playing on the TV; he hoped to catch some highlights of the NFL playoff games…

Jonas Valanciunas 22 Points/4 Dunks Full Highlights (12/26/2014)

Sometimes I have to go back and re-read my old descriptions to remember what my opinions used to be. Things change so fast in the NBA that I can be right one day and totally wrong the next. Luckily I am mostly right, except when I called John Wall a bust just because he was…

Jonas Valanciunas 18 Points/3 Dunks/4 Blocks Full Highlights (12/8/2014)

The title of the video says “3 Dunks”, but let’s be honest with ourselves here. Not all dunks are created equal. A big man catching it under the basket and hopping two inches into the air to deposit the rock is not as exciting as Gerald Green catching it at the three point line, upfaking,…

Jonas Valanciunas Career High 27 Points Full Highlights (11/24/2014)

I’m trying to figure out if the Raptors are REALLY good, or just, you know, really good. Because they’ve looked like contenders so far this season, kind of. I say kind of because their roster doesn’t scream “These guys are going to win a chip and fill a hot tub full of champagne!” to me….

Jonas Valanciunas 17 Points Full Highlights (11/15/2014)

Jonas Valanciunas had settled in, as he often did, for a night of TV watching. His head was the only visible part of his body, as he was swathed entirely in a handmade quilt from his native Lithuania. The newly-acquired flat screen TV in front of him was a significant step up from the Soviet…

Jonas Valanciunas All 80 Dunks Full Highlights (2013-14 Season Dunkilation)

There is a lot more to Jonas Valanciunas’ game than dunking. However, for the purposes of this video, we don’t care about any of that. For all you know, these 80 dunks are the only shots that Jonas made all year. His sizable accomplishments this year have been reduced to a compilation of him converting…

Jonas Valanciunas 16 Points Full Highlights (4/30/2014)

Jonas Valanciunas opened his desk drawer and rummaged through the assorted documents until he found what he was looking for: a crumpled, stained sheet of plain notebook paper. At the top of page was found the title, “Kill List”. The large Lithuanian scanned down the list of names, a list which encompassed all of the…
