Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL) 2023-24

Lietkabelis has easier remaining schedule, Neptunas Juventus and outsiders. Neptunas and Juventus both have 2 games against top-3 teams

Neptunas has nothing to lose and just to enjoy the games. Unfortunately another (bad) LTU coach had to be sacked for Neptunas to turn to next gear.

The fact that Zagars is playing is huge difference. If he will start delivering, he's on the same tier with Evans nearly. He's elite. He can carry Wovles.

[Straight forward]

I'm not gonna lie, I will turn on Rytas- Wolves game because of Zagars. The only elite Euro on the court and the only truly elite player.

I hope you enjoyed Foster.

I hope you enjoyed Foster.

I enjoyed more the intensity of the game and specially the crowd.

Yes, of course, the game as a ticket to the final was worth watching. I truly meant that Foster is a better and more attracting player than Zagars. At least for now. And the game showed that.

ATM, when Zagars out of shape, maybe. But their ceilings are like day and night. Zagars may be better player than Jokubaitis. They are on the same tier, IMO. We are talking about players who might play in NBA in their prime.

[Straight forward]

Sirvydis with 20ppg in LKL playoffs and just one weaker game from 7. Now he starts small final with 31eff. He's there, he's a baller. I would love to see even higher % from three, he shoots 36% in playoffs, but he's a baller already. In 2-3 years he can still add a lot and will be either very good role player for top teams or maybe even one of keys of EL top clubs/NBA role player.

Playing against Zalgiris and Wolves is serious level and he delivers.

[Straight forward]

I'm watching what D. Giedraitis does with Foster and I literally can't believe what the hell Maksvytis did. It's impossible, but true. Most idiotic decision in LTU NT history. The way Dovydas holds Foster is nothing, but impressive. And then we see how another midget Cole destroys Lekavicius. To me it's more than clear - Marciulionis>Lekavicius. Lukas become simply unwatchable defensively.

ulanovas is a very funny player. i dont remember the last time ive watched a game with him having any positive impact. he has to on the top of the most overrated lithuanian basketball players of all time

[Straight forward]

Giedraitis carrying Zalgiris all game long. If not his 2 way presence tonight, Rytas would trash this kind of Zalgiris.

. And then we see how another midget Cole destroys Lekavicius..

It happened only few times. On other hand, offensively Lekavicius was the best player of the game with 21 pts and zero turnovers. Btw, he always provides against Rytas so i expected that.

Rytas can't do it simply because he's not strong enough. In fact Rytas won a almost a lost game having -10 close to the end of the game. Luck needed to make that crazy three by Radzevicius. It seems Evans' injury made these finals interesting.

Giedraitis was good, but i had big questions to our defense when he was making those lay-ups. Btw, he missed all his 4 or 5 triples. At the end of the first half he missed open 3pt and then in the last seconds Normantas knailed a hard triple and it became -7 for Zalgiris instead of -1. But i must give a credit for his defense against Foster.

His game style is weird. His shot technique is weird and his main offensive weapon is playing by or in the post like some old-fashioned center. So when he doesn't provide it's more annoying than usually with someone else.
