The topics ranged from food to music, and one of the questions was Best-of-5 Finals versus the Final Four. Both players chose the first option.

"Two years in a row, we came as the favorites in the Final Four [but] we just lost to Madrid for the first time in the season [and that was it]," Jokubaitis argued his choice. "We beat them 5 or 6 times in a row, and [in] one game, our season was finished."

"I mean, [the Final Four] is not a bad format, don't get me wrong, but for sure, [if] the series would be like the playoffs till 3 wins, I'd agree to it," Jokubaitis added.

Indeed, Barcelona reached the Final Four for three seasons in a row but didn't come out victorious on all three occasions.

Currently, the Spanish powerhouse enjoys another great regular season campaign, having a 5-1 record which is good enough for the 2nd place in the standings.
