If Morris Kemp had finished the season where he started it, he would have been relegated.
Instead, he is now competing for a championship, when he already has a trophy.
Kemp is the addition that catches on.
The add-on that matched with maximum precision, upgraded.
For the umpteenth time it has been proven that what is not enough for one group can be a bargain for another group.
He started the season with Maccabi Rishon LeZion - made good numbers (16 points per game) but nothing connected to the team this season. He was on a temporary contract and when it ended he was released. After he left, we really did not see the upgrade of Rishon LeZion, which continued to replace And as mentioned, the league was also relegated.
Herzliya jumped on the bargain and he signed in early December.
In retrospect, this is one of the best transfers of the season in our league.
Herzliya already had a high third alongside Cinano Onwako and Andy Van Witt - Shamarkus Kennedy - but she was looking for an upgrade and found Kemp, who fit like a glove next door.

Kemp integrated quickly and although he has mostly been off the bench since then, he is on average 23 minutes on the pitch and efficiency is his strength.
For the forward with the impressive athletic abilities, it starts with defense and rebounding (5.1 per game), continues the attack in his various roles (12.5 points with 60 percent for 2) and most importantly - fits the style and running game of Herzliya.
The sixth player of the season?
Camp fits Bull to the facial line we built in Herzliya.
He can play next to Onwoko and also can replace him and play alongside Andy Van and Lit.
And no less important, he knows how to get off the bench excellently.
In Herzliya's excellent season, its players will be candidates for individual titles.
Onwako and Chris Bab are candidates for player of the season and Camp can be marked as a leading candidate for the sixth player of the season.
The 30-year-old forward arrived in the country this season after a relatively modest career that ranged between Greece, Argentina, Lebanon, Hungary, Uruguay and Puerto Rico.
The "peak" of his career was 14 games in the Spanish league in the Fuenlabrada uniform.
Last season he played in Estonia, and landing in Israel afterwards did him very good considering his age.
Last Thursday, Bab and Onwako were restrained, and Camp in his best game of the season (28 points, 81 percent from the field) led Herzliya to a 0: 1 advantage in the series against Hapoel Haifa.
Today awaits game number 2 in Romema.
