As a Greek and an OLY fan for me, Lithuanians have the best basketball culture in Europe. You have crazy fans but they love and respect the sport in contrast with us Greeks and Serbs . The atmosphere in the arena is the perfect example of how fans should act. My 🫡 to tour country and team . You deserve a lot more . 🔴⚪️🟢 ( there are toxic greens and there are healthy greens 😜)

Among all fans , everybody sense that in Lithuania have the purest basketball culture . They dont overreact ,they dont leave when they loose a game before the game, and they dont provoke-not a lot at least-  .  Oly  fan trying to be objective ,in my opinion most of the other club fans agree.

Congrats , from Oly fan from Greece. I admire your team , i admire your atmosphere , i wish you all the best. Love from Greece.

Kaunas is the undoubtful capital of European basketball. Great atmosphere, love for the game and their team as well. I hope , we would come close to you some day. Greetings from GR | OLY

I mean Zalgiris represents Lithuanian basketball as a whole and it's their n°1 sport. Imo they have one of the best atmospheres out there and what differentiates them from others is that it's for everyone. You can feel the passion through all ages more than anywhere else, truly beautiful to watch ! I need to go there one day for sure !

Next time Barkley announces Zhalgiris squad

It was a good game. Oly needs some time to adjust in this new team but I believe there is a long journey for all the teams.
We need healthy fans like Zalgiris fans, simply supporting their team. There is so much toxicity in Greece, we need a bit of healthy stuff and not stupid owners posting and commenting every single thing with hate comments and behavior of a 10 year old child...

Gytis, this is a GREAT video....loved it!

Shaq thought it was 'jabba hutta jabba hutta hey hey' GUERANTEEEED

Lithuanians have decent atmosphere but greek and serbs are alone in their own level

I signed up for the Euroleague "league pass" for the first time. Enjoying it.

This guy's top 5 of best fans:

1. We don't mention this team
2.  Zalgiris
3. Olympiakos
4-5. The serbian teams

Great atmosphere 👏🏼🫶🏼

Nobody underrates Zalgiris fans. I am pretty sure every Euroleague fan loves the atmosphere over there. Enthusiasm and support but within basketball, not hatred

Maaan,what a day for Žalgiris fans!I always loved those fans,club....passion.
Get a little tear on my eye...I realy wish here in Slovenia we still have something like that like we have around 90s and early 2000 with Olimpija Ljubljana in Euroleague.
But,its all about money  these days.

It's amazing, so great atmostphere in club basketball.👏👏👏 As a latvian i'm happy that also Latvia and Estonia getting better in basketball. And i hope that fan suport will grove also un club level!

Great atmosphere, sorry we beat you once again

Μy co-patriot ΕυαγγελοςΚολχουρης wrote it all! The main difference of Lithuanian fans is that they UNDERSTAND the sport. They understand subtle things like the last moment when Vezenkof returned to court before Fournier's second shot and AFTER Jonas asked for his timeout, that he would miss the second throw! You could see it in th faces and gestures. And they understand how hard it is to beat their team especially when playing good, like Tuesday night. I really hope I can live that atmosphere some day...when Kaunas gets a decent number of places to stay without a fortune!

Paradna atmosfera🤗
