Regular Season Round 20: Ironi Nes-Ziona - Hapoel J-M 68-76
Date: February 25, 2015
The game in Nes Ziyona was also worth to mention about. Second ranked Hapoel Jerusalem (14-6) played at the court of 6th ranked Ironi Nes-Ziona (10-10). Hapoel Jerusalem managed to secure a 8-point victory 76-68. The guests were already 12 points ahead after 3 quarters before a 21-17 Ironi Nes-Ziona's run in the last quarter cut the lead to 76-68 at the end of the game. 24 personal fouls committed by Ironi Nes-Ziona helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. The winners were led by American-Venezuelan Donta Smith (201-83, college: SE Illinois JC) who had that evening a double-double by scoring 21 points and 14 rebounds and the former international Yotam Halperin (195-84) supported him with 21 points. Four Hapoel Jerusalem players scored in double figures. Even 21 points by Gil Amitay (197-89) did not help to save the game for Ironi Nes-Ziona. American forward Craig Smith (201-83, college: Boston Coll.) added 12 points and 8 rebounds for the hosts. Hapoel Jerusalem have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain second position with 14-6 record having four points less than leader Maccabi T-A. Ironi Nes-Ziona lost fifth consecutive game. They keep the sixth place with ten games lost. Hapoel Jerusalem's next round opponent will be Hapoel Holon (#3) at home, which may be the game of the day. Ironi Nes-Ziona will play against Hapoel Tel-Aviv and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
