Magnificent Su was just unstoppable in the opening game of the playoffs for Jerusalem and it wasn\u2019t just his impressive statistics. In 25 minutes, Braimoh scored 21 points on 8\/10 shooting, he pulled down 7 rebounds, dished out 4 assists and drew a massive 9 fouls which resulted in a 30 efficiency rating. Without Braimoh\u2019s fine play, who knows what would have happened especially when Nes Ziona pulled even at 60 in the 3rd quarter. The Nigerian native was mentally into the game from the get go and played as a leader on the court reminding me of the Su that we all saw last year in Eilat as his team went all the way to the Final 4. \u201cSu was great for us tonight,\u201d <strong>said John Holland.<\/strong> \u201cHe exploited the mismatches down low, knocked down 3\u2019s and got offensive rebounds. He was doing it all for us tonight.\u201d <strong>Braimoh didn\u2019t want to take in all of the accolades<\/strong> after the game, \u201cWe have to go back to review the video and fix up our mistakes. We have plenty of work to do to improve out play.\u201d Holland echoed his teammates thoughts, \u201cThis was a crucial game to set the tone for the series and I\u2019m glad we were able to come together and get the win. But we have to clean up our mistakes and play way better if we want to finish the series on Sunday.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_20177\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/FB976213-23DC-4EB2-8B95-2E49BD5BA2DA.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20177\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/FB976213-23DC-4EB2-8B95-2E49BD5BA2DA.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20177\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-20177\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n2) <strong>Hapoel Jerusalem didn\u2019t have one of their better nights<\/strong> in game one of their quarterfinal series against Nes Ziona, <strong>but even despite that the Reds still won by 25 points<\/strong>, 104-79 in what seemed to be a blowout. But in reality it really wasn\u2019t. The key for Oded Katash\u2019s team was the 4th quarter when their rotation was just fresher than than Nadav Zilberstein\u2019s squad. Sure, Suleiman Braimoh was locked in from the get go and James Feldeine hit his shots as did John Holland but they just didn\u2019t click together as they have done in the past. I\u2019m not taking any anything from a brilliant final frame from Nimrod Levi, Emanuel Terry and others, they did what they needed to do, but let\u2019s take a look at the minutes that the two teams clocked in. Jerusalem had 9 players who out in over 15 minutes of playing time each while Nes Ziona had 6 players with 18 minutes or more. Now that\u2019s a massive difference in depth and personnel available for each squad.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_20179\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/C47E2E18-F6F6-4506-B459-3467650BC2E4.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20179\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/C47E2E18-F6F6-4506-B459-3467650BC2E4.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20179\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-20179\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n<strong>Zilberstein definitely felt that this was the reason<\/strong> his team fell apart in the 4th period, \u201cWe played well for the first three quarters and then we just tired out and we were falling apart as we were playing with a short rotation. Oliver and Rice played 30 minutes straight and Limonad and Tokoto played a lot as well. You can see on the score sheet that Jerusalem had 41 bench points and we had 7. We played hard but it came to an end in the last quarter.\u201d However, <strong>Oded Katash wanted to hear none of it and stated his team just finally executed properly<\/strong>, \u201cI don\u2019t think that we were able to pull away because Nes Ziona was tired. The players finally were able to score as we asked them to do during the first 3 quarters. Nes Ziona switches on defense and we know how to handle that and when we got to the 4th quarter we just made the game easy for ourselves.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_20193\" style=\"width: 1610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20193\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1066\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8.jpeg 1600w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8-1536x1023.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/A8F4414C-D15A-4193-A4E5-7037ACBF53C8-600x400.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-20193\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n3) How critical was the mental side of the game? It has been crucial and an issue that Oded Katash has been talking about for a week now. It\u2019s critical that the players get into the right mental state especially understanding that these games are playoff games and that they are playing for all of the chips. Nes Ziona coach alluded to that when asked as to why Lindell Wigginton only played a couple of minutes and he said that he can\u2019t have a player thinking that they are still in the G-League running up and down the court while <strong>Katash<\/strong> said the following, \u201cThe mental side of the game since returning from the coronavirus break has been crucial. Players have been in quarantine which isn\u2019t their normal routine and I also have been as well. It\u2019s not easy. The issue of the Israeli league being the only one that is playing, the fact that they are reading about a player here and a player there signing with a team isn\u2019t simple as some don\u2019t know their future.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_20207\" style=\"width: 906px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/ecc6a28f-4a49-4d2a-9de8-8d7ffac2aec1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20207\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/ecc6a28f-4a49-4d2a-9de8-8d7ffac2aec1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"896\" height=\"793\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20207\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-20207\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n<strong>While Katash was happy with the win<\/strong>, he was also content with some of the pressure his roster had to face which in the long run will make them stronger, \u201cI\u2019m happy we had a bit of a tough time in the third quarter because if anyone thought that this series was going to be easy then they now understand that it\u2019s not. Of course we said that it wouldn\u2019t be a cake walk so when they experienced it they understood better what challenge they have in front of them.\u201d <strong>Nimrod Levi<\/strong> had this to say about what happened when Nes Ziona tied up the game late in the third, \u201cI knew we had to wake up and I am happy that we were able to make that switch in our heads and played well in the 4th quarter.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_20186\" style=\"width: 1610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/8B606660-5E97-4CE9-9D7D-7AFA0CCACE5D.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20186\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/8B606660-5E97-4CE9-9D7D-7AFA0CCACE5D.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1066\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20186\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-20186\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dov Halickman Photography<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n<strong>Overtime<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>I liked what I saw from Rayvonte Rice<\/strong>.
