Maccabi Tel Aviv are pleased with the 76:82 victory last night (Thursday) over Bnei Herzliya, which raised them to 0: 1 in the playoff semifinal series.

After a weak first half, in which with a lot of luck the Yellows went down a little behind, Avi Even made it clear to the players in the locker room that they could not continue to play such a bad defense.

He puts emphasis on how to stop Chinano Onoako, even by strong blocks in defense, and continue with the good defense of Chris Bab.

The small changes worked and Maccabi won the second half convincingly.

"Our defense of Onoako was better," Maccabi said of the work they did in the second half.

"He's a very talented player and if you want to get him out of the game you have to be focused, give him amps and other things. We managed to do that in the second half."

"I'm very pleased with how we played in the second half," said Jake Cohen.

"We made adjustments in the half and stopped them at just 31 points. We were focused and intense. Winning the first game is very important. Now we will come to win the second game."

Maccabi complimented the national player who did a good job in his minutes on the field.

"Jake has proven many times that when he is on the field he does a great job," the team said.

"He did a great offensive job on Onoako."

The player himself honestly admitted: "The quarter-final series was tough for me, I did not play well enough on both sides of the pitch, and now I have a sense of satisfaction. There are more things to improve and I am never satisfied, but it does help your team win."

Ante Žižić did only two training sessions with touch before the game, and his rust stood out to the naked eye.

Despite this, Maccabi decided to register him for the series, and now they believe that after receiving minutes in the first game, he will return to himself already in the game on Sunday in the Jubilee Hall.

The main reason for the Yellows 'insistence on registering the Croatian chin for the game was Jaylen Reynolds' weak ability in recent games, until the professional team decided not to participate in the last game against Hapoel Tel Aviv.

"There were a lot of doubts, we know Ante is not at his peak and we knew it took time to get into the pace of a game," Avi Even said.

As time went on he felt better until he ran out of air.

In the next game, we will help him to be better and make us better. "

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
