By these indicators, “Žalgiris” is always the leader, and the team deserves respect for that, “said Š. Jasikevičius, when asked how the Kaunas team stands out from other teams.

“There are no miracles. It may seem miraculous to think that it is easy for us in the Lithuanian league, but it is not true. We had to respect all our competitors,” said the former “Žalgiris” helmsman.
