\n\u201cThis was a very important win for us,\u201d Ramat Gan head coach Shmulik Brenner said. \u201cThis was a team win that brought pride to our club. We were missing two important players but I am always happy as to the way the players come into the game no matter who is available. We won at a difficult arena and while this was a big win, the season continues on.\u201d

\n\u201cWe weren\u2019t there defensively from the first minute of the game,\u201d Hapoel Jerusalem Head Coach Yonatan Alon said. \u201cWe had to get back to our defense and we weren\u2019t able to the entire game. I think we can get more from every player. hen we win it\u2019s all of us together and when we lose it\u2019s all of us together.\u201d

\nMangok Mathiang spoke about his team\u2019s victory, \u201cWe were locked into the game and made sure to stay within our game principles, against one of the historic teams in Israel. We came into a tough environment and coach made sure to keep us together.\u201d

\nLevi Randolph reflected on the loss, \u201cWe knew what we were facing a really good team with good players that are coached really well. They were on a hot streak and so were we coming into the game. Giving up 91 points is a lot of points and it\u2019s hard to win with so many points. That\u2019s not who we are. We needed intensity on defense and there were a lot of mistakes on our part, we have to continue to work hard.\u201d
