Maccabi Tel Aviv has four losses this season in the Premier League.
Two of them to Gilboa / Galil.
The Magen Ner team continued its excellent season tonight (Monday) with a fifth victory from its last six games, this time with 78:85 over the champion.
Maccabi Tel Aviv? Probably realized that the trip to the arena means nothing.
Gilboa has what not many groups have: physical, aggressive and size.
That's why she dropped a team of 91 points averaging less than 80.
Add to that the offensive elevation in the third quarter and you get the picture.
After a balanced half, Gilboa flew to 6:25 and finished the third quarter with 32 points and a 16-point lead.
Maccabi raised its defensive lineup to the last quarter and the pressure did its thing - the gap dropped to 66:73 in three and a half minutes.
For a moment the host seemed helpless and on the way to collapse, but just in time for Kerry Blackshire to stop the Yellows with a three and an assist and Maccabi Tel Aviv, there was no answer anymore.
Ness Ziona defeated Hapoel Haifa 70: 100
Just in time, Ness Ziona is getting into excellent shape.
In the last game before the Final Four of the European Cup, the Oranges defeated Hapoel Haifa 70: 100 on the way to a third consecutive league victory.
In a great game with 25 assists, the Oranges ran over the opponent who put up their worst game of the season.
This time, Wayne Selden joined the regular group of outstanding players.
