Speaking of this, the funny thing is that most people (not nec. referring to you) in this thread and around the twitter/forum world that are saying the tournament is meaningless would be blasting him had he played poorly. Hell, he'd probably already be labeled as a bust by some.It's just a miserable, worthless indicator of anything. If you want to argue the point that Valanciunas earning consistent minutes on a top Euroleague team tells us something, I'd accept it and even agree fully with you. But the mere chance that anyone is thinking that the U19 tournaments have any sort of value in terms of predicting future success or failure needs to realize that they don't.
Also wonder what the reaction to his current tournament would be if the Cavs had drafted him.
