Hapoel Jerusalem and Maccabi Tel Aviv opened a big gap over the rest of the league this season. Tonight (Saturday) we got another example when the Jerusalemites, without the leading coordinator and with only seven players, defeated Hapoel Holon 84:91, which in the last few years has been a third side at the top.

The injured Tamir Blatt was not at the disposal of Oded Ketch, procurement player John Holland had not yet landed in Israel and the five foreigners who were available to the Reds this season were not this time, so the trophy holder reflected the high level of training, tough defense and character we have already seen several times .

Suleiman Bremo left behind a lesser time and was unstoppable under the baskets, James Paladin provided another impressive shooting display and also Tyshon Thomas was great. The three looked for all the drawbacks and also Jacob Brown's middle evening to maintain a perfect balance this season in all frames at the Arena.

Holon has yet to see the impact of new coach Stefanos Dadas who has been able to deliver a few workouts. The defense is not yet coordinated, the attack is mainly based on personal moves and too many players are not in good personal fit. One of the missions of the Greek would be to recruit Guy Panini for the group's return to track. The veteran forward scored only 3 points, which would be difficult to succeed.
