Date: December 10, 2017
The most crucial game of the last round was the first loss of Maccabi T-A (9-1) in Tel-Aviv on Sunday night. Hosts were defeated by second ranked Hapoel Holon (7-2) 93-89. It may be a crucial game in the contest for the top position in the league. Maccabi T-A trailed by 15 points after 3 quarters before a 34-23 run in the last quarter cut the deficit to 89-93 at the end of the game. Hapoel Holon forced 22 Maccabi T-A turnovers. Strangely Maccabi T-A outrebounded Hapoel Holon 43-25 including 28 on the defensive glass. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. It was a good game for American swingman Glen Rice Jr. (198-91, college: Georgia Tech) who led his team to a victory with 28 points. International point guard Tamir Blatt (182-97) contributed with 14 points and 4 assists for the winners. American point guard Pierre Jackson (180-91, college: Baylor) answered with 20 points and Australian power forward Jonah Bolden (208-96, college: UCLA) added 6 points and 10 rebounds in the effort for Maccabi T-A. Maccabi T-A's coach Neven Spahija tried various players' combinations and tested in total eleven players in this game, but that didn't help. Hapoel Holon have an impressive series of seven victories in a row. They maintain second place with 7-2 record having just three points less than leader Maccabi T-A. Maccabi T-A at the other side still keeps top position with one game lost. Hapoel Holon are looking forward to face Hapoel Jerusalem (#3) on the road in the next round, which may be the game of the day. Maccabi T-A will have a break next round.
