Date: February 17, 2014
The game in Eilat was also quite interesting. Second ranked Maccabi T-A (15-4) played at the court of 5th ranked Hapoel Eilat (10-9). Maccabi T-A managed to secure a 9-point victory 75-66 on Monday. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Hapoel Eilat. Hapoel Eilat was trailing by 6 points at halftime but managed to get 2-point lead after three quarters before a 23-12 charge of Maccabi T-A, which allowed them to win the game. Maccabi T-A outrebounded Hapoel Eilat 40-29 including 30 on the defensive glass. It was a great evening for international point guard Yogev Ohayon (189-87) who led his team to a victory scoring 23 points and 9 rebounds. Greek center Sofoklis Schortsanitis (206-85) helped adding 7 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists. Maccabi T-A's coach David Blatt used a ten-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. At the losing side American swingman Kevin Palmer (198-87, college: Texas A&M-CC) responded with 23 points and 8 rebounds and the former international point guard Afik Nissim (186-81) scored 9 points and 5 assists. The victory was the eleventh consecutive win for Maccabi T-A. They maintain second place with 15-4 record behind leader Hapoel J-M. Loser Hapoel Eilat keeps the fifth position with nine games lost. They share it with Ironi Nes-Ziona. Maccabi T-A will meet at home league's leader Hapoel Jerusalem in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Hapoel Eilat will play against Maccabi Rishon (#10) in Rishon Le-Zion and hope to secure a win.
