It seems like a pretty far-reaching goal, but Maccabi Tel Aviv is still in the fight for a ticket to the knockout stage of the Euroleague. With 82:91 over Basconia, the Yellows improved the balance to 11: 9, finished a grueling week with a smile and stayed two wins away from the prestigious eighth place. Next opponent: Real Madrid in a week.
After receiving reviews, Yuval Sussman Answered and big with 11 points that helped Maccabi Tel Aviv win. “I want to say something small to all the children at home: Anyone who wants to hurt you, do not listen to him,” the player began in a monologue. Physically, mentally. “Even if I do 20 Airballs, it means nothing.”
“I’m still the same jubilee. Nothing has accumulated. Every day I got up to be better at basketball, I kept working physically and mentally,” Sussman declared. “Yesterday someone brought me an article about me to read, I read it in front of him and said it could be thrown in the trash. I do not read it, for better or worse, I know who I am with and without the reporters.”
“This time more balls came to me and I was able to bring myself offensively. Today I enjoyed the pitch after 2-3 games in which I was less of a partner,” Sussman insisted on the difference, concluding: “We played more as a team. “This advantage and everyone enjoys it. Theodosic recently said that the assist is the most beautiful thing in basketball – without a doubt.”
“I’m very happy for him and I expect everyone to play like Yuval played tonight,” Pargan Yannis Sapropoulos To Sussman. “Everyone is human and not always in every game will score a lot, but you have to fight and you have to help the team through the defense as well. That’s what I demand from the players.”
“Happy with the reaction of the players, after a not easy loss. Tonight this team won and all the players helped, no matter if they played six minutes or 26,” Sapropolos continued. “We have a character, you see that all the games are close and the small details change.”
“There is no home advantage or pressure on the opponent, so the games are different than they were in the Corona period and we have to fight for every little detail to win,” Sapropoulos insisted on the differences. “Today we were very focused and controlled the game all the time.”
