Maccabi Tel Aviv closed today (Friday) a perfect week in the league with 74: 100 over Hapoel Beer Sheva and completed three victories in three games. The campers of Yannis Sapropoulos looked excellent against the Southerners, they controlled what was happening on the floor and emphasized the balance of power from the first moment. On the sidelines of the Yellows’ victory, TJ Klein landed in Israel and will join the team’s training.
Whoever came out particularly pleased with the victory of his team is a coach, Yannis Sapropoulos. “I saw a high concentration and determination of the players. This is something important in our growth,” the Greek was happy, adding, “All the players came to the game regardless of age or seniority and gave everything. I am satisfied with them. Everyone played with the same mentality.” The coach commented on the change his team has undergone in the last week compared to the previous one: “We wanted to react after the loss to Gilboa, we have to continue this way, we are behaving like family.”
Sapropoulos did not forget to compliment his opponent and explained how seriously they took it: “If Be’er Sheva finds its rhythm, it can kill you. Give the players the example that they made a comeback against Rishon LeZion. So we did not want to give them this pleasure. We were focused from the first moment. “
John Dibertolomao, Who finished the game with 15 points and five assists, explained what has changed in his team compared to last week: “We try to learn from every game. Last week Gilboa jumped on us, and today we did not allow the opponent with an aggressive game. We came with a lot of concentration from the beginning. We wanted to control the game. Our will. “
Like his coach, the guard complimented his opponent: “BS is a team that can turn the game around at any moment and should be given credit. They lead the league in many parameters. Today we did not allow them to show any of that. The most important thing is to get better from game to game. “
On the losing side, Rami Hadar, He explained his team’s display: “We can not play when we score so low of three. Plus, we got all sorts of ‘stinky’ baskets that hit us. I saw a lot of our free throws that didn’t go in. That’s my style and I will not change it. I attribute the loss. This is for Maccabi Tel Aviv a better team. You have to be perfect to beat a team like that and today we did not do that. “
