I\u2019m worried about Maccabi, I really am.<\/p>\n
Last week I began my Baselines column with the exact opposite.<\/p>\n
Sports are really amazing. One win one day and you\u2019re on top of the world. One loss the next day and you are at the bottom of the pile.<\/p>\n

Maccabi Tel Aviv – Photo Credit: Dov Halickman<\/p><\/div>\n
Maccabi played perhaps its worst home game in quite some time showing absolutely nothing. Zero. Nada. Zip. Zippo. \u05db\u05dc\u05d5\u05dd \u05d5\u05e9\u05d5\u05dd \u05d3\u05d1\u05e8. There was nothing to see as Red Star just dictated play from the get go to take a quick 10-0 lead before the Yellow & Blue even came out of the dressing room and ripped off their warmups. It was as if the Serbians owned Maccabi and in fact they did.<\/p>\n
They were Maccabi\u2019s \u201cDaddy\u201d if you\u2019re familiar with the term and if you\u2019re not then here is the rundown.<\/p>\n
On September 24, 2004, in the middle of a tight pennant race, the Yankees handed future Hall of Famer Pedro Martinez and the Boston Red Sox a tough 6-4 loss.\u00a0 Martinez went 7 1\/3 innings giving up nine hits and five earned runs.\u00a0The game came just five days after (in his previous start) Martinez had lasted just five frames against the Bronx Bombers (eight hits, eight earned runs) in a 16-7 loss.<\/em><\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/https-bosoxinjection.com-wp-content-uploads-getty-images-2017-07-51117362.jpeg\")
Pedro Martinez<\/p><\/div>\n
After that second loss, Martinez candidly commented, \u201cWhat can I say? I just tip my hat and call the Yankees my daddy.\u201d\u00a0 Little did he know that his comment \u2013 and a Yankee fans\u2019 chant of \u201cWho\u2019s your daddy?\u201d would follow him into future starts in New York (all the way to his final MLB start \u2013 against the Yankees for the Phillies \u2013 in Game Six of the 2009 World Series.)<\/em><\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026 In the Dominican during the winter league, when someone has your number\u2026in the Dominican, when you can\u2019t beat them you normally say \u201cwho\u2019s your dad?,\u201d\u201d Martinez wrote. \u201cThat\u2019s what we say in the winter league. Because I didn\u2019t have the exact words, I felt like they were my daddy right now\u2026that was the terminology I used based on where I played in the winter league. But I don\u2019t regret it, it didn\u2019t change anything, if anything it made me better against the Yankees. Whenever I heard that chant I just turned it on,\u201d he added. \u201cI would strike them out and stay on top of the game. Have everybody shut up\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
Yankees fans are considered to be some of the best in sports and to take such a mundane comment to the level of how they had is tremendous. Do the Maccabi fans see Red Star and their former guard Nate Wolters as their daddy after this dominant victory? Do they see Dejan Radonjic as Ioannis Sfairpoulos\u2019s daddy? Could be. Could very well be.<\/p>\n
The bottom line is that Red Star were Maccabi\u2019s daddy in every which way possible.<\/p>\n
Likes & Dislikes<\/h2>\n
- \n
- I liked what Mathias Lessort said after the game about the fans and how they must put on a better show if they are putting down their hard earned money to see them play.<\/li>\n
- I liked seeing so many fans in the stands who supported the team all the way to the bitter end of a brutal game. That is something that shouldn\u2019t be taken for granted.<\/li>\n
- I liked the way Red Star played team basketball to perfection with back door cut, smart passes and just good all around fundamentals.<\/li>\n
- I liked seeing Nate Wolters play well along with Luka Mitrovic and Nikola Kalinic who are 3 players that The Sports Rabbi had interviewed.<\/li>\n
- I disliked that the trio above had to play well against Maccabi Tel Aviv and send the Yellow & Blue to an abysmal loss.<\/li>\n
- I disliked the team\u2019s preparation for the game, a game which they had a week to get ready for as they came out flat as a pancake in what was a must win game at home against an opponent that was not as talented as them.<\/li>\n
- I disliked that Jake Cohen was not dressed for the game and his experience, length and good basketball sense would have been an asset as the squad struggled mightily all night long.<\/li>\n
- I disliked that Kameron Taylor had his rear end glued to the bench for the entire 40 minutes. Why have a foreigner dressed or even at all if he is not going to play?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Quotes<\/h2>\n
This was his best game at Red Star – Dejan Radonjic on Nate\u00a0<\/em>Wolters<\/i><\/p>\n
We played their rhythm even though we discussed it and analyzed it and said we didn\u2019t want that to happen. I think after they got a double-digit lead we got frustrated and nervous – Ioannis Sfairopoulos<\/em><\/p>\n
You play for the fans and have to respect the 11k that come to see you play and you have to fight for those people. When they pay for ticket you have to think about that. We have to give everything we have. They kept cheering us when we were down by 20. We will bounce back and make the fans proud – Mathias Lessort<\/em><\/p>\n
We didn\u2019t play any European competition in preseason and it\u2019s not ideal. Today we let how we played offensively effected our defense with the slow tempo and put us in a funk – Angelo Caloiaro<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
