Both have recently been out with injuries, Johnson with a broken hand and Butler with a back issue but are now getting back into game shape and will be counted on going forward. \u201cWe played well in the first half and Coach told us at halftime that we have to keep to our principles,\u201d Johnson commented following the game. \u201cThey are a dangerous team of you get comfortable and they cut our lead. They made a run but at the end of the night we got the win but we\u2019ve got something to learn from this game.\u201d The forward also spoke about his return to the court, \u201cI\u2019m feeling good and I\u2019m happy to be out there with my team competing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>2) <strong>Jerusalem Coach Oded Katash<\/strong> was certainly happy to come away with the win after his team blew a huge lead but was also happy to get back <strong>Da\u2019Sean Butler and Chris Johnson<\/strong>. Butler has arguably one of his best offensive evenings and showed what he can do with the ball on the attack. Basketball aficionados are all aware as to what kind of great college player Butler was with West Virginia when he took his team to the 2010 Final Four where his squad eventually lost to Jon Sheyer\u2019s Duke University and where he suffered a torn ACL and sprained MCL. Butler has been an amazing stopper on the defensive end this campaign and hasn\u2019t shined offensively but against Nes Ziona he scored some clutch buckets down the stretch to help Jerusalem to the win. Katash spike about Butler and Johnson\u2019s return to the court, \u201cTheir return is very important for us after their injuries and the team will have to adjust to having them both back. They are one of our strengths as a team and gives us the ability to be a more dangerous club.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_12662\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/ABB121DE-F655-46F4-A633-26468F4AE2A8.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12662\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/ABB121DE-F655-46F4-A633-26468F4AE2A8-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-large wp-image-12662\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-12662\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Basket.co.il<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n3) <strong>Jerusalem has to be very careful<\/strong> to know how to put away teams and not allow them back in the game. We\u2019ve seen them blow away the likes of Nahariya, Hapoel Tel Aviv and Bnei Herzliya but last week they fell in Rishon Le\u2019Zion and Nes Ziona gave them a huge scare when they knotted up the game at 77-77 late in the decisive quarter. The Reds need to know how to kill off teams and more importantly know how to adjust when a team changes up tactics and in this case go to a smaller lineup. It took Jerusalem a good while to make this adjustment and allowed Nes Ziona to go on a 12-0 run to open the 4th quarter. But as the players and coach said, they must learn from this and make sure they don\u2019t make the same mistake twice because next time they may not be able to win the game. \u201cIt\u2019s good to win and we made the stops we needed to at the end of the game, but we need to know how to deal with these types of games,\u201d Katash said following the contest.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_12663\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/AB06151D-240C-4009-B84D-78099BEFC233.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12663\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/AB06151D-240C-4009-B84D-78099BEFC233-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"size-large wp-image-12663\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-12663\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Basket.co.il<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n<strong>Overtime<\/strong><br \/>\nJerusalem has to put the Lior Eliyahu vs Oded Katash clash behind them as soon as possible. It\u2019s clear that the two aren\u2019t on the same page as the captain won\u2019t return to play until next Saturday against Hapoel Gilboa\/Galil. Eliyahu was at practice on Friday but as reported on Sport5 Katash was unhappy with the forward and decided that he wouldn\u2019t dress him for the Nes Ziona and Champions League game coming up on Tuesday. The longer this lingers the more issues it will create and Jerusalem has to put an end to the nonsense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hapoel Jerusalem needed a late run to put away Nes Ziona 90-82 at the Pais Arena in the nation\u2019s capital.
