Leedu korvpallimeistriks tuli 9. korda järjest Kaunase Žalgiris, kes alistas ammuse konkurendi Vilniuse Rytase finaalis mängudega 3:0. Viimaseks jäänud kohtumises tehti totaalne hävitustöö - 92:54!
Lõpptulemusest olulisemalt jõhkramat seisu näitas tabloo 26-minutilise mängu järel - 68:26! Poolaeg oli lõppenud 43:20, seega alustasid niigi suures eduseisus olnud võõrustajad kolmandat veerandaega 25:6 spurdiga... Žalgirise suurim eduseis oli 45-punktiline (87:42, viimase veerandi keskel).

Brandon Davies was subbed out in 27th minute of the game with Zalgiris up by 38pts vs Rytas (last game of LKL finals). Jasikevicius encouraged fans to stand up for Davies. Saras hugged him & later every Zalgiris player did the same. Fans chanting „Brandon Davies!“ in the stands.

Aaron White also received standing ovations from Zalgiris fans when he was subbed out in the end of 3rdQ. Again, Saras hugged him & it seemed like to be another "thank you and good bye" moment for White. Both Davies and White are expected to leave Zalgiris for a bigger contract.

Võitjaile tõi Edgaras Ulanovas 15, kaotajaile Martynas Echodas 17 punkti.
Kaks esimest mängu oli Žalgiris võitnud 79:64 ja 85:67.
Sarunas Jasikevicius on his future with Zalgiris: "Now I can't say anything. It's so great in Kaunas, that some very incredible situation must come, that I would change it. Now I feel very good in Zalgiris. I don't need to chase anything, because Zalgiris is TOP organization."
