They gave one of those take no prisoners efforts and finished the best of 5 series in 4 games, 3-1. Jerome Dyson who had been a vocal leader both on and off the court over the three wins played top dog while scoring at will. He had the heart of a champion and you can never, ever give up on one. Coach Katash agreed, \u201cDyson and Kinsey are vocal leaders and they took the series upon themselves. They showed that they are winners, but were not done yet.\u201d JD himself who came into the press conference with a huge smile spoke about the how no one should ever, ever, underestimate the heart of a champion, \u201cThey really woke us up the first game. They came out running their mouth on every play and we took it personally. I think that\u2019s what they didn\u2019t understand. We came in to fight.

There was no contest between the two teams. When you have Startos Perperologou, Kalin Lucas, Yotam Halperin and Lior Eliyahu coming off of your bench you know you\u2019re in good shape. Yes, some of those players have been inconsistent over the course of the season but nonetheless when you have 4 players of this ilk at your disposal you\u2019re in good shape. Depth is the name of the game when you\u2019re playing every second day. Coach Oded Katash wouldn\u2019t go as far to say that this was the decisive factor, \u201cGilboa doesn\u2019t play with such a short rotation. Every game they seem to have an X-Factor. We played with a very short rotation ourselves in the second half, but the confidence of the players coming off of the bench was very important.\u201d Ariel Beit Halachmi also addressed the depth issue, \u201cI don\u2019t want to take credit away from Jerusalem, they played better than us. We also have depth and you have to give them the credit, they deserve it.\u201d Dyson also looked at the long bench that the Reds have, \u201cIt\u2019s amazing. We pressured the ball and they weren\u2019t going to be able to keep the tempo of the game that we want the whole way through, make plays and be fresh. The wanted to keep guys in the whole game and we were going to make them work.\u201d<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE-1024x681.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-10546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE-1024x681.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE-300x199.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE-768x511.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE-1536x1021.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE-2048x1362.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/46C18336-AF6D-4302-9020-1288E5C40BFE-1080x718.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong>3)<\/strong> Got to give credit to Oded Katash for pulling this Jerusalem team together and getting them to the Final 4 because once you\u2019re in you have a chance to win especially when it\u2019s one and done. The former all-star guard knows exactly how to get the most out of a team and he\u2019s done it over the last few years. Sure he had been with the Reds years ago but he was much younger and not as seasoned as he is now when he can lead what is called a \u201cbigger\u201d team in Israel not just the smaller clubs. He\u2019s one with those as well when he took Hapoel Galil Eylon to the championship, he\u2019s truly a special person, coach and was once an all-star player. Dyson also spoke about his coach and his belief that Jerusalem would make the Final Four even with all of the turmoil going on just a few months ago, \u201cThat\u2019s me, that\u2019s just who I am, I\u2019ll never count myself out of nothing. Oded came in and did a great job for us. You saw the turnaround we had since the first day he arrived.

The coach thanked the crowd for their support all season long, \u201cWe have a lot of appreciation towards our fans who filled the arena throughout the campaign.\u201d Joaquin Szuchman also looked back at the season that was, \u201cAfter being relegated a few years ago, we came back last season and had a solid campaign while this year we were so close to the Final 4 and we played good basketball.
