When Su goes 4\/4 from 3 it gives them also a boost and they scored from the outside at 50% rate. We usually keep teams to a lower score and this is how we win games.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_53357\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53357\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1931\" class=\"size-full wp-image-53357\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-300x226.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-1024x772.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-768x579.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-1536x1158.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-2048x1544.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-610x460.jpeg 610w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5CAE35D4-D692-4C3F-B1C8-7514CFD231AF-1080x814.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-53357\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">KC Rivers &#8211; Photo Credit: Basket.co.il<\/p><\/div><br \/>\nBraimoh certainly had the outside shot working to his advantage but it\u2019s also clear that with Rivers on board, Jerusalem has taken a big step forward and is serious in their desire to win the league championship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKC will make it easier for us to play.

But specifically the Herzliya game I felt bad, five turnovers, four which were live turnovers that led to immediate baskets at the other end and that is not how I play. I like to play high IQ basketball, get my guys involved and be aggressive. I think I had a decent second half but the first half contributed to putting my team in the hole so felt I owed my guys for that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With a 13-5 record in the Israeli league and the only competition that they are left with this season, every game is crucial for Jerusalem and every win helps build confidence along with consistency and puts them in a better position with three months remaining in the campaign.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_53341\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53341\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1706\" class=\"size-full wp-image-53341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LEN6157-1080x720.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-53341\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Suleiman Braimoh &#8211; Photo Credit: Basket.co.il<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n\u201cIt all takes time and we hit important games with the State Cup and Prometey early on.
