Not a good performance today, 1/7 FG in 15 mins, 2 reb, 2 TO, 4 fouls.
It will take some time. He wasn't going to set the world on fire his first game back.
Is that Anthony Carter and the Greek Shaq going after the ball?
Can't tell if that's Carter but the other guy is definitely Snuffleupagus.
Who`s better to do next year backup backup SF/Toros - Jean Charles or Bertrans ?
Depends on how they come back from injury. I like Jean-Charles for his defense and rebounding. He can play the four as well.
Hanga as the backup SF/SG and Livio as a backup for PF/SF...I like Bertrans but I think his body is not developed enough to play in the NBA without breaking down give him another year.
Bertans already with 20 points against Lokomotiv Kuban. 4/4 for 2 and 4/6 from 3. 5 mins left.
Impressive numbers, especially if you consider that he just played 20 minutes in this game.
Too bad his team is already knocked out of the next round. They still have two more Euroleagues to play though, on April 4th and 11th.
Partizan has Adriatic League play after Euroleague, right?

Thanks yavozerb! Bertans looks faster than I remember (maybe I've been watching Daye too much).
One more game in regular season and then F4.After that comes the Serbian league.
Hope he is not too attached to the number 44
Wait...he's got a partially amputated ring finger on his shooting hand? And he shoots that well? insane.

Iirc he cut it off as a child while he was chopping wood or something like that.
Just tuned into Partizan - Zalgiris.
Bertans off to a good start with 6 points on two 3s. Also a good opportunity to get a look at Bogdan Bogdanovic.
Very good first half for Bertans, 10 points on 8 shots and 5 rebounds. Outside of those 3s he had a reverse layup on a heady backdoor cut and then had a great sequence where he rebounded the ball, ran the length of the court and finished with a strong two handed dunk.
Not a good stint here in the 3rd. Two forced 3s and a blocked shot on a drive. Partizan not doing a good job setting him up with screens though, pretty much just giving him the ball on the wing and asking him to create something.
He also switched from playing SF to PF. At least his effort on the boards has continued, up to 7 rebounds already.
Bogdanovic has been awfully passive so far not creating much of anything.

Bertans 17 pts + 10 rebounds for 30 minutes.Looking much better than anyone expected.
I'm really surprised by his offensive versatility. When I first saw him I thought he would just be another one dimensional spot up shooter but his ball handling and ability to work off screens are coming along nicely.
Still don't know if he can defend anyone at the NBA level but his length is definitely an asset.
