Olympiacos hung about 10 sheets of fabric to limit the possibility of rain leaks inside the Peace and Friendship Stadium.

The latter multi-purpose indoor arena was opened in 1985 and renovated from 2002 to 2004.

Meanwhile, Oly fans saw their team lose their second game in a row.

Chris Jones poured in three clutch shots from the charity stripe with 3.9 seconds to go, Valencia Basket came back from a 13-point fourth-quarter deficit and celebrated a hard-fought victory in Piraeus.

Georgios Bartzokas and Olympiacos players unleashed after the final whistle as they didn't get the foul they wanted.
