Big celebrations at Maccabi Tel Aviv after the dramatic 74:75 last night (Thursday) against Real Madrid, which put the Yellows on a leg and a half in the Euroleague quarterfinals.
"To beat Real Madrid after beating Milan, two teams from the top of Europe, by 48 hours, is a significant statement," the club said.
"It was a big week here for the whole team."
Scotty Wilbkin, who recovered from a weak game against Milan, remembers well what was here until a few weeks ago: "It was a crazy season, with the team, the coaches, the fans, there was a lot of chaos. When you make two such big victories against top 4 teams it is one. "Everyone. If we continue to win, everyone will be happy."

Maccabi is already looking at the next stage and the club has those who quietly dream even of the Final Four in Belgrade.
"We have the staff, the fans, everything that can help us get to the Final Four," said Derrick Williams.
"It's part of the fans, part of the team, everyone gives a little bit, everyone pushes towards the Final Four. It's realistic for us."
Wilbkin, on the other hand, sounded more cautious: "We'll see where we get to, we're nearing the end and we'll see what else we can do. We need everyone to pick up their game. In the previous game everyone played well except me, despite my six rebounds,
"Today it was like that again. Everyone played very well, Keenan picked up his game and scored big shots we needed, that's what we needed, to continue the defensive rebound and give a little more on offense."
