Michael Brisker scored 22 points, Donta Smith chipped in with 18 points and Taylor Braun scored 16 points in the loss.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe couldn\u2019t finish the game earlier and there was pressure on us,\u201d said Dedas. \u201cIt\u2019s as if we played against ourselves. It was a strange game but now we are in the Final Four. They have talent as they fight against everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t feel good,\u201d said a disappointed Greens coach Daniel Seaone. \u201cEveryone looks at the coach and I take full responsibility. I am proud of players but they tired. We were competitive and we can turn the corner but we have our backs against the wall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Willy Workman who scored 8 points for Holon was making his return to Haifa for the first time since leaving the club, \u201cIt was weird and different.
