UNICS Kazan - Hapoel Jerusalem (82:71)

Both teams reached the semi-finals with many ups and downs

  • Published:

Both Hapoel and UNIC had a convincing lead in their respective games but they both allowed their opponents to get back in the game. However, they kept their cool and secured this much expected clash in which both teams see a chance for themselves

www.lokobasket.com

Yesterday brought expected results and the wins for the favorites. Hapoel had an easy showdown against Nymburk, controlling things right from the start. They were up by 20 at some points during the game. The Czechs did not give up and they got back to -6 (71-77) with five minutes to go but they  never got any closer. Hapoel played a calm end game and brought the game to a close in a routine manner.

- We are happy for our first Euroleague win in 12 years. We played against a well organized team with a great coach. We did great in offense right from the start and e increased our defensive performance in the second half. We will be ready for a difficult game on Thursday -  said coach Danny Franco.

Hapoel got quality reinforcements and arrived to Belgium with a goal of securing the Euroleague. Apart from being able to keep their main players, the board has brought in great reinforcements who did a great job yesterday. Their players in the paint Jones and Gaffney got a combined total of 29 points and 16 rebounds, while Donta Smith added 14 points. Their top player was Bracey Wright with 22 points, and Franco had six players with at least 12 points, which is really a rare sight in European basketball.

The Israelis were aware that they would have to beat UNICS to reach their goal. The Russians were huge favorites ahead of their game against Stelmet but the first games of the season can often be tricky. After taking the 46-32 lead at the start of the second half, it seemed that there wouldn`t be a problem. However, Stelmet tied the score at 51-51 and they did not give up when UNICS got a double-digit advantage once again. They even came to -1 on a couple of occasions but the Russians kept their cool and reached their goal.

- It is normal in this part of the season to lose concentration during the game. We did not play good defense in the second half. However, we stayed calm, changed our line-up and won the game. Will we do better tomorrow? I don`t know. Hapoel were up by 20 points as well an things got tight at the end. It is hard to promise something after only a handful of training sessions - said Argiris Pedoulakis.

UNICS`s coach cannot promise a better performance but it is clear that UNICS will not pass the Israelis without it. Hapoel are much stronger than Stelmet, they have more individual quality and will not be so forgiving in terms of defensive mistakes. UNICS did a good job in offense yesterday as Langford and Jerrells took the lead (22 points each) but they need defensive aggression that they based their performances on last year. Pedoulakis is a typical advocate of Greek basketball and it is certain that 90-86 is not the winning result he wants, especially not after allowing 54 points in the second half.

This will be UNICS`s third time in the semi-finals of the qualification tournament and they got stuck at this step on both occasions. They will try to end their negative run today. On the other hand, Hapoel have started the season great, they have already won the Israeli Super Cup and are brimming with confidence ahead of this semi-final.

Yesterday's matches went over 175 points, and that is the sole reason for this margin. However, both Stelmet and Nymburk are teams that lean more towards offense, play at a fast pace and are responsible for such efficient matches. Both matches also had more than 50 points scored in the last quarter, which I doubt will be the case today. Hapoel won the Israeli Super Cup, and stayed below this margin in all three matches they played. Yesterday their coach wasn't pleased with the way they played defense, nor did UNICS strategist Pedoulakis, and how could he when UNICS allowed 54 points in the second half and turned a won game into a complicated one. Today I expect both sides to play much more cautiously. The stakes are huge, as the winner gets a step away from the Euroleague and I don't expect a mad rush on the court. There is no shortage of offensive potential, but this is still the start of the season and the teams are not fully optimized. Pedoulakis embodies the Greek basketball philosophy, and we all know it's base. I see this match more along 150 points or even less, this margin is definitely set too high.
