The Basketball Association is currently holding a press conference ahead of the National Cup finals to be held tomorrow (Thursday, 9 p.m.) between Hapoel Jerusalem and Ironi Nahariya with coaches and team captains, Oded Ketch and Bar Timor of Hapoel Jerusalem and Danny Franco and Tony Gaffney.

At the opening, JR McNeill apologized for being eliminated in the semifinals against Ness Ziona: "I apologize for my actions in the game. I have to take responsibility for my actions towards my teammates and everyone.

Nahariya coach Danny Franco: "This is no longer a game. The excitement with us is great. Great respect for the city and a great honor for the team to reach this moment. We will have to put the excitement aside, in such games many times the little things are crucial. What we do we have to do much better. We have to be perfect to take the game. "

Tony Gaffney: "There is no effect to the previous game between the teams. Prepare well for the game and will need to be concentrated for 40 minutes to come out with something."

Captain Bar Timor: As a captain there is responsibility and there is something on your shoulders. It is exciting. We've done things before and hopefully we'll make a good game.
