Larkin led EFES to a 13-4 run to start the 4th quarter and give the visitor\u2019s a 71-62 advantage with 5 minutes left in regulation time. With Maccabi in their back heals Moerman and Micic again scored a number of crucial baskets that went unanswered by Ioannis Sfairopoulos\u2019s squad as they fell 79-71.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3-Pointers<\/strong><br \/>\n1) This was a very disappointing home loss for Maccabi Tel Aviv any way you slice it. With a chance to move to .500 on the season the Yellow &#038; Blue came up short. Was it their game to win or their game to lose? Probably both. EFES is in the midst of arguably their best season in years and are sitting in 4th place with a record of 17-9. The key for EFES has been that they are playing like a team. They have a balanced attack and play excellent basketball as a team. With five players finishing with 12 points of more, going 27\/44 from 2 and turning the ball over only 7 times its hard to say that EFES showed any weak points in the win. Truth be told they are as good as any of the other top flight teams in the Euroleague and they are aware that perhaps, just perhaps a continental title may be in the offing. I asked their coach <strong>Ergin Ataman<\/strong> about his feelings of winning for the first time in Tel Aviv after ten tries, \u201cI hope this will not be just the first win over Maccabi but the first Euroleague title. I have a lot of confidence in my players and we have played great basketball this year. We came into tonight\u2019s game very focused and I\u2019m proud of my players.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13300\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/BB408112-24F9-4DAC-BD52-DB0EF9D72368.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13300\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/BB408112-24F9-4DAC-BD52-DB0EF9D72368-1024x791.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/BB408112-24F9-4DAC-BD52-DB0EF9D72368.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/BB408112-24F9-4DAC-BD52-DB0EF9D72368-300x232.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/BB408112-24F9-4DAC-BD52-DB0EF9D72368-768x593.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/BB408112-24F9-4DAC-BD52-DB0EF9D72368-70x53.jpeg 70w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/BB408112-24F9-4DAC-BD52-DB0EF9D72368-600x463.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13300\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n2) What led to the Maccabi loss in a must, must win game? You could say that it was Tarik Black\u2019s foul problems, or DeAndre Kane\u2019s first quarter foul woes that led to a poor performance, or the EFES lockdown defense on Michael Roll (11 minutes), Scottie Wilbekin (3\/11) and Jeremy Pargo 2\/8. Well it was probably a combination of all of the above as EFES controlled the game, especially in the second half. Coach <strong>Sfairopoulos<\/strong> spoke about Black\u2019s foul trouble and what effect it had on the game, \u201cHe got the technical foul and the offensive foul at the start of the 4th and at that moment we were very close to them. After the game you can say that I should keep him or not but it\u2019s always a risk. What would have happened if he was in for a minute and picked up a 5th foul. As the game went we had the chances at the end. But the technical and offensive fouls were very crucial that was from an unforced turnover from our side. I agree that the foul problem of Tarik was important for the result.\u201d Sfairopoulos also talked about Kane\u2019s performance, \u201cHe had two fouls in the first quarter and in the second I tried to protect him. It was not one of his best games.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13301\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/552837C4-1BA4-4118-A2AB-9551780023D3.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13301\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/552837C4-1BA4-4118-A2AB-9551780023D3-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13301\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13301\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n3) I had a chance to ask some of the players about what went wrong against EFES including <strong>Johnny O\u2019Bryant<\/strong>, \u201cThey got some easy looks, easy 3\u2019s and we got behind. Tarik has been great for us and is one of the best big men in the league. He does a great job in bringing energy switching on defense, but getting the 4 fouls really hurt us.\u201d <strong>Jeremy Pargo<\/strong> also spoke about the disappointing result, \u201cWe played hard and gave it away; it happens. We had our opportunities and we couldn\u2019t convert.\u201d <strong>Alex Tyus<\/strong> also chimed in, \u201cThere were points in the game where we could have played better. We came back a few times but it wasn\u2019t enough.\u201d The question now is, does Maccabi still have a chance to qualify for the Top 8.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overtime<\/strong><br \/>\nIt certainly won\u2019t be easy but Maccabi still has a chance to qualify for the quarterfinals. With four games remaining they will need to run the table. Possible? Yes. Probable? Let\u2019s keep hoping just like the players are. <strong>O\u2019Bryant<\/strong>, \u201cFor sure we can do it. We fought like hell until now so we will fight until the end no matter what the odds are.\u201d <strong>Pargo<\/strong> also believes that Maccabi can, \u201cOf course we can.
