Jasikevicius attempted to lead his team to a position to fight for home-court advantage in the playoffs through a win, but he couldn’t succeed in the thrilling finish.
“We didn’t play our recognizable basketball. We didn’t understand that we needed to play as a team. We had too many turnovers. As I always say, games are decided by details, and we made silly fouls and sent them to the free-throw line. The fight was there, my players gave it their all, but as I said, we didn’t play our recognizable basketball,” said Sarunas Jasikevicius.
