Both Amiel and Kaiser gates blew off the loss and chalked it up to a number of reasons why they performed as poorly as they did. However, Jerusalem can never, ever look the way they did against Maccabi where they were blown out of the building.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe game didn\u2019t go our way and we have to look ahead to the Champions League game on Wednesday and keep our heads straight. We gave a great group of guys and we wanted to win but I don\u2019t think it will be a problem to keep going forward,\u201d Gates said.<\/p>\n<p>Amiel also spoke about focussing on their European game in Poland against BM SLAM which is a critical must win continental clash after losing their first two games with both being at home to boot. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight now our focus is on Europe and Thon didn\u2019t play now but we felt that Gates could play good defense.

To help them, to support them and to be critical and sometimes I have to say no. They have to fight and if they get everything easy they won\u2019t fight for their lives.

You won\u2019t play good defense if you don\u2019t practice and our players want to and they do practice. We still have to have better cooperation. But to play well on defense we need to have the energy to play defense. It requires people&#8217;s high energy and sometimes the players don\u2019t have that energy. We have to have habits and the mental will. Maybe on some days our energy won\u2019t be enough but we will try with our practices and commitment and play as best as we can on the defensive end of the court.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>All in all, Maccabi did what they needed to and they dominated an overmatched Jerusalem squad that has to not only be better but perhaps more balanced as they are still struggling without proper ball handlers and centers.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_43346\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-43346\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211023-613137-scaled-e1635017579294.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1958\" class=\"size-full wp-image-43346\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-43346\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scottie Wilbekin &#8211; Photo Credit: Basket.co.il<\/p><\/div><br \/>\nBoth teams are a work in process with each squad having a big European week ahead as Maccabi will play Zalgiris and Barcelona at home while Jerusalem has a make it or break it game on the road. <\/p>\n<p>With every victory, Maccabi is going to get better and better while they will hope that the defeat at Gilboa was just a hiccup on the way Oz Blayzer said, &#8220;There\u2019s no question that the loss in Gilboa shouldn\u2019t have happened and we learnt from that.
