Regular Season Round 2: Ironi K-A - Hapoel Afula 84-74
Date: October 23, 2012
The most crucial game of the last round was the first loss of undefeated Hapoel Afula (1-1) on the court of top-ranked Ironi Kiryat Ata on Tuesday night. Visitors were defeated by Ironi Kiryat Ata 84-74. It was a key game for the top position in the league as both teams had the same 1-0 record before this meeting. The game was mostly controlled by Ironi Kiryat Ata. Hapoel Afula managed to win second period 19-18. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. It was a great shooting night for Ironi Kiryat Ata especially from behind the arc, where they had solid 57.9 percentage. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists. American point guard Darrin Govens (185-88, college: St.Joseph's) orchestrated the victory by scoring 20 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists. The former international power forward Chris Watson (200-75, college: Niagara) contributed with 21 points for the winners. American forward Allen Durham (198-88, college: Grace Bible) replied with a double-double by scoring 22 points and 13 rebounds and his fellow American import guard Anthony Fisher (191-86, agency: Pro One Sports) added 16 points and 4 assists in the effort for Hapoel Afula. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Ironi Kiryat Ata (2-0) keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 4 other teams. Hapoel Afula at the other side dropped to the sixth place with one game lost. They share the position with 3 other teams. Ironi Kiryat Ata is looking forward to face Maccabi Kiryat Bialik (#13) on the road in the next round which should be an easy win for them. Hapoel Afula will play against Ironi Nes-Ziona (#8) in Nes Ziyona and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
