Trinchieri’s joke about Biroutis’ weird floater: “I’ll… burn his car if he stops it!”

Although at the beginning of this season his participation was limited, o Laurinas Biroutis has become an important factor in recent times for the Zalgiris and especially from the day he took over the bench of o Andrea Trinchieri.

The Lithuanian center has won the trust of the Italian coach and what makes him stand out are the… strange, but highly effective floaterwith which he scores.

This strange technique, therefore, does not concern Trinchieri at all, who in a related question after the victory of the Kaunas team over Panathinaikos AKTORgave a terrible answer: “Biroutis knows that if he stops these floaters, then I will… burn his car!“, said the Italian jokingly.

His words were on the same wavelength Keenan Evans on his teammate and the strange way he scores: “If he stops doing those floaters, then we’ll… kill him».

The strange Birutis floater:

Litvanci su odlicno reiaerali na abrune Fenerbahcea kada su oni iskakali na piku. Birutis se again podize na PnR, a Evans superb rjesava iskakanje brzim lob dopaženem u short roll. Birutis jos jedom briljira jer se immediately nakon screena otvara po baltu i jos jedan floater. pic.twitter.com/jQIGALm4q1
