Great game by both sides. I think one of these teams could potentially place 3rd in the World Cup. A few things I took from the game...
Dario Saric dominated on the inside, even against Gobert and Mahinmi. He's too creative of a player and can thrive on the inside even against more physically imposing players. He was used mostly as a standard Power-Forward in this game and the more I watch his game, the less I see a SF in him. Some people may take that as a negative, but even against quality competition, he seems to be the X-Factor in any game he plays in.
Damjan Rudez played awful; he accumulated 3 fouls in the first 5 minutes of the game and sat the rest of the game.
Bojan Bogdanovic went 2-10 from the field, 1-5 for 3pt land, but contributed 8 points 6 rebounds 2 assists. I think he will be a solid role player for the Nets this upcoming year as he can do a little bit of everything. I view him as the wing version of Mirza Teletovic with a bit more well roundedness.
Ante Tomic had a very quiet game and although he does extremely well in the 2nd best league in the world, this game makes me question if he would be successful in the NBA (although I don't think he will come over ever). I really like his game, but unlike Saric, he doesn't seem willing to mix it up with the big boys.
Mario Hezonja accumulated 4 fouls in 10 minutes. He didn't take a shot, didn't have an assist, steal, and only managed to grab 1 rebound. He looked lost out there, but I still have really high hopes for him in the future. He has shined when he garners significant minutes and that is scary considering the NBA fits his style of play more than the European leagues.
Luka Zoric was an absolute monster scoring 20 points, while shooting 5-9 from the field, 1-1 for 3pt range, and 9-11 from the FT line. Mind you, he is a 6-11, 29 year old C/PF type but he is the type of player that I don't understand how scouts let him slip through the cracks. Especially in the NBA today, he could be one of those solid role players that come cheap and fufill a specific duty.
