The victory was never in doubt as the Yellow &#038; Blue pounded Pedro Martinez\u2019s squad into oblivion and with Panathinaikos losing to Real Madrid coupled with Milano\u2019s loss to a short handed Fenerbahce, Ioannis Sfairopoulos and his players can keep the dream alive for another week. Of course, there will still be games not only tonight, Friday but also next Thursday before they actually face Fenerbahce themselves next Friday night in a contest that may come down to, win and you\u2019re in. Jake Cohen was upbeat following the victory, \u201cIt was a great win for us. We wanted to go out on a high note on the last regular season game and I had a lot of fun tonight.\u201d Captain John DiBartolomeo also commented about the win, \u201cThe fans were great. They were loud and we fed off of their energy. We\u2019re happy about this game.\u201d The MVP of the game Alex Tyus punctuated the game by saying and praying, \u201cWe now have to on the next one. We just have to win and hopefully God will help us. We gave the fans something to remember of this season.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13474\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/A61E8814-636F-428E-97DC-3216BDE85B02.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13474\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/A61E8814-636F-428E-97DC-3216BDE85B02-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13474\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13474\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n2) However, <strong>I\u2019m sure if the players look back at the season they will point out to one game in particular that should have, could have and would have been a win<\/strong>; the matchup against Gran Canaria on the road. At 8-21 and in 14th place, the game in the Canary Islands was there for the taking. But as the Yellow &#038; Blue were struggling mightily in former coach Neven Spahjia\u2019s last game, a trip to Spain is never good medicine, and beaten they were. There were certainly other close games that got away from the Zalgiris matchup last week to the first game of the season at Panathinaikos and from the loss to Baskonia at home to the defeat at Milano. All of the those games were winnable, but at the end of the day Maccabi would most probably need 16 wins to get in and at best they will end the campaign with 15 wins and a prayer. Cohen spoke about the what if, \u201cThere are so many variables and basketball is such a fickle game. Your whole season could be changed by one shot, one pass and one dribble. So to play the \u2018what if\u2019 game gets you nowhere. You have to focus on improving and getting better.\u201d Captain John DiBartolomeo also commented on the what if, \u201cThat gets us nowhere. We\u2019re happy with the win and we have to focus on the next game. Reminiscing about the past is not helpful right now.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13472\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/41E9E083-34F0-4BD5-AE25-BCC3F57B7C07.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13472\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/41E9E083-34F0-4BD5-AE25-BCC3F57B7C07-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13472\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13472\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n3) <strong>One of the highlights of the game was getting a chance to see Deni Avdija play 12+ minutes<\/strong>, score 10 points and take 5 rebounds. The up and coming star who is ticketed to be a lottery pick on the NBA 2020 draft had played in a youth game earlier in the day as well where he almost recorded a triple double. Coach Sfairopoulos was happy with his progress, \u201cI\u2019m very happy and he\u2019s improving especially on his defense. That\u2019s most important for me. He was good on both sides of the court. Everyone knows that we count on him and we want him to stay humble.\u201d Avdija was all smiles after the win and thanked his teammates, \u201cI have to give credit to my team for my performance and I want to continue that way. I\u2019ve been working hard early mornings. All the guys set me up with good passes and I hope it keeps going like this. The best fans in the world are Maccabi.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13469\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/4F35A92A-F8D0-487F-A086-A43868CCDD26.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13469\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/4F35A92A-F8D0-487F-A086-A43868CCDD26-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13469\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13469\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n<strong>Overtime<\/strong><br \/>\nI asked Coach Sfairpoulos if he would have signed up for the opportunity to be heading into the last Euroleague game fighting for a place in the quarterfinals, &#8220;I would have signed on for that because I feel that we deserve this with the basketball we have played. We have won some important games; in Moscow for the first time since 2004 and we beat Panathinaikos in Israel for the first time in 4 years as well as Olympiacos at home, so we had big wins. Unfortunately, the players were under pressure from the first moment because we needed to win all of our games at home. It wasn\u2019t easy and we beat the top teams in the standings, so I think we did as best as we could. I am happy we are still in business. We will fight to the end and we will see what will happen. I am happy as to how we responded and reacted after the bad start.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maccabi Tel Aviv kept their slim Euroleague playoff hopes alive with a huge 90-55 victory over Gran Canaria at Yad Eliyahu.
