Christian Padal and Dormitory Musersky Krisztian Padar (HUN) and Dmitry Muserskiy (RUS). But I know why you got it wrong, because the auto translations are always so funny  I am so happy watching JT Thunders do so well this year! Aaron have adjusted well in the team now and performing way better vs last season. Here are his current stats vs last season: Kill Rate: 56.1% vs 49.5% Blocking: 0.42 vs 0.35/set Receiving: 58.2% vs 53.6% The back to back wins vs Wolfdogs Nagoya are huge. |

Thanks for the assists. In the stat sheet.....question ...im assuming "inner back attack" is back row attacks? In the overall stat measure it adds to the attempts # . I think JT Hiroshima was down 0-2 in the match and came back to win. I am surprised at their success this year. |

But they are also already counted in the Attack part of the stat sheet (front row + backrow), so no need to add them to get points. They just want to see the back row attacking performance. I did not expect them to be this good also. They still haven't played vs Panthers so that will be a good test. I hope they can sustain this level. Next week is the Emperor's Cup and they got a pretty good draw atleast before Final Four. They might just play vs Panthers first here vs the regular league. combination here www.jva.or.jp/results/final_tournament/657 |

For this match Kurek had how many attempts and kills? 24 kills on 43 attempts if I understand correctly. Of those 24 kills (10 were from the back row on 25 attempts) Thanks for your patience. |

His back row attempts at 25 are already more than those of JT Thunders' total back row attempts. He had 28 points from 24 attacks, 2 blocks and 2 aces. |

For Hawai'i fans: Thelle played (briefly) for Lube today against Trentino. If you have VBWTV, tune in around 15-22 in set 3.

Anderson with 6 aces today. They win in 5.
Holt made his season debut with Beijing last week but left in the second set with what looks like an ankle injury.
Micah and Zenit bounce back against Novosibirsk in the cup semifinals after losing the first leg. They play Moscow in the finals on Christmas Eve.

Suntory just clinched a spot in the next round by taking Sada to 5. Ma'a and Halkbank need to beat Sada in 3 or 4 sets, or they are eliminated.

I'm so surprised and impressed that Suntory has made it to the semis Club Finals with chance to play Perugia in the finals. The Japanese League will be even better next year allowing 2 non Asian foreigners.

They have been a surprise so far.
Halkbank not showing up is also a surprise, but probably shouldn't be.

I always enjoy watching Alain at Suntory, such a dynamic hitter.
