Great anger at Hapoel Haifa on the refereeing team who whistled 30 offenses during the loss yesterday (Sunday) 92:71 to Hapoel Tel Aviv and sent the Reds no less than 37 times to the penalty line, just a few weeks after the referees sent the Hapoel Holon players 43 times to the line against the team From the Carmel.
"We really play aggressively, but it's really not close to those numbers," said Hapoel Haifa officials who will have to make do without Spencer Weiss, who opened the language and was taken to the hospital during the game.
The national guard will probably miss the upcoming game against Hapoel Beer Sheva.
"If this is the basketball we want, then you could say there was a beauty of a game here," Elad Hussein said angrily after the game.
"I was in this situation two weeks ago against Holon. If you want teams to throw penalties all day, then nobody enjoys this game. We want to compete and play aggressively, one team is on the line 40 times (37 yards), a second team a bit. Less, 10-11 more offenses. "

"We played against Hapoel Jerusalem, which is at least as good an attacking team as Hapoel Tel Aviv, and it was not like that on the line, it's very frustrating. Our player opened the language and he is in hospital, another player was sent off. "The Israeli, we look at every substitution, every exercise, every substitution of a player. I want the same thing to happen to other factors in the game. If they tell us that this is the way to behave, then that's what we will do. We should be able to teach the players to save better."
"I do not know a league in Europe where a team goes to the line 40 times. I coached in Greece, where you are blown up and not whistled. A great Greek referee once told me that as long as the contact before receiving the ball I do not whistle. James Young a great player, sent him 17 times to The penalty line. James Ennis is not a less great player than Young and he does not get any respect. Hapoel Tel Aviv was better, I have no problem losing, but there is a way to lose.
If they were to score 40-45 percent to three I would remove the hat, whoever is better wins, but not through 40 times on the line.
We play with the 11-12 player on the field because we have no players.
"Then they will say I'm whining and making excuses, but I'm going with my truth. Basketball is not supposed to be sitting on the line 40 times. It does not make sense. Anyone who saw the game saw that we kept regional 15-20 minutes and still they went 40 times to the line. "And on the other side are two whistles."
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
