Hapoel Tel Aviv Desperate to Bounce Back
Hapoel Tel Aviv entered the quarterfinals as heavy favorites against Maccabi Rishon but suffered a surprise 82-74 defeat in the opener at home. However, they responded convincingly with a 95-69 victory in Game 2 before completing the comeback with another comfortable 96-83 win.
Dimitris Itoudis’ side then cruised past Hapoel Jerusalem 3-0 in the semifinals, which came as a surprise considering most expected a much tighter series.
Hapoel struggled badly with ball movement and organization in Game 1 of this final series, committing 19 turnovers which led to a convincing 96-75 defeat. Their shooting numbers were still decent at 47% from the field, but they generated very few second-chance opportunities and lacked rhythm throughout. Johnathan Motley was the only player to reach double digits with 12 points.
Maccabi Tel Aviv Looking to Tighten Their Grip
Maccabi Tel Aviv were the most dominant side in the Israeli Super League regular season, finishing in 1st place with an impressive 24-2 record.
They had zero problems in the quarterfinal series against Hapoel Beel Sheva, advancing in just two games with convincing 106-90 and 108-83 victories.
A very similar scenario unfolded in the semifinals, with the Yellows cruising past Hapoel Holon in three games. Game 3 was a complete display of defensive discipline and half-court control, ending in an 89-61 victory after limiting the opposition to just 26 points in the second half. Jaylen Hoard was named man of the match with 18 points.
Maccabi carried that momentum into the finals and controlled Game 1 from the opening possession, winning all four quarters in a dominant 96-75 victory while converting 66% of their two-point attempts. Hoard continued his excellent playoff form and finished as top scorer with 20 points.
