"We knew in advance what the problems could appear and they appeared so at least we know what we have to change.

We kept fighting today even though we were behind.

There are many things that I am not happy with, I would like us to be smarter, to use offenses in a smarter way.

Let's play faster.

This is my 31st year as a coach, presenting amazing basketball is not realistic.

I am happy for the victory.'

Drushapka's coach, Selgok Aamek: "Congratulations to Hapoel Jerusalem, we knew it was going to be a tough game."

The game was close but we recorded 17 losses and that decided the game against us.

We are a new group and we will have to find a way to connect and prevent things like this in the future.
