Maccabi Electra Tel-Aviv - 2013/2014

[maccabeo]

many questions now:
-what owners will do: they will make an ambitous market considering the title and money maked with victory or not?
-do mta will have alsmost same roster confirming even players who showed limits or adding many players as would be necessary?
-is rice the anonymous players who played in europe for years, or the new larry wright as in last games?
-confirming ingles or not?
- what about blu?
- who will be the coach?
-ohayon?
-landesberg?
-what about smith.counting on him waiting his post surgery?
-whan about james back?
-isnt pnini at his last station?

no team must solve more doubts than us

do somebody here knows how is playing cohen in il league? as usual for every perimetral players ,mainly big men, he was totally misconsidered by blatt .i wouldnt be surprise if he is playing well

Maccabi in the FINAL 4!!! Another Blatt's failure!!! Maccabeo, where are you to comment on that?!?!????

[ran222]

his destiny was written since dthe beginning. blatt doesnt like those players. no way. he was fired even before coming and as usual in thiose cases, blatt never let them any chances. a very good player ,much much better than blatt' s icon ohayon.
a team who has ohayon-rice and doesnt give naimi one chance ,it could be surely a blatt's teamthe day blatt will be far from tel aviv, it will be a nice day for us

BTW, Naimi averages in Eilat 3.8 pts (35% from 2, 22% from 3), 1 ass, 1 TO per game .

Most important thing is, when he plays- he forces a lot, doesn't know how to run the offence, and other teammates looks lost when the ball is in his hands.

IMO it proves that he just isn't that good.

I wanted him to get his chance in Maccabi(even so i didn't like his personality and style), but i was wrong.

Maccabi crushed Hapoel Jerusalem 93-71 and ended Hapoel's 13 win streak.

Maccabi moved to the 1st place for the 1st time this season.

Smith, Sofo and Landsberg were fenomenal.

If Maccabi had Bracy wright instead of Hickman, it could be major upgrade. He is great player.

Eliyahu and Halperin were amazingly bad for Jerusalem. (Eliyahu tried to much, Halperin just had 0% effect- reminded his performances in big games when he was Maccabi player )

[maccabeo]

any prediction about smith and tyus on court again?

[maccabeo]

Another blatt's fail: Limonad. Best il player in il league, but unfortunatly he is a shooter so , as many others players with pure shooter ability, he was fired by blatt because of his magical system!

news about james?

[maccabeo]

I agree 100%!

Thats the reason why i didn't re-new my season ticket this year, after 15 years.

The hardcore of the fans, the active fans on games - can't complain that the management running the business only to make money , and then to buy the season ticket and to cheer during the games.

it's ridiculous! thats exactly what the management wants us to do! those fans don't see the big picture. and they let their so called "Maccabi pride" emotions take over.

And if they decide to go to the games- they can put up a show with big signs against the management, to shout against them, to go protest on practice.


I think that the "Maccabi pride" is to NOT accept the management tactics and to let them feel in their pockets the damage they are doing to our powerhouse club

well ,all is clear but as u didnt renew the your tickets, i guess some fans is thinking like u. is there no chance to show your opinion and view to all fans who use to go to nokia anyway even when having ohayon-rice as pg and sofo tyus as c??
and MAINLY wich is the media's opinion about managment? i mean step by step , day by day starting just talking and even through some forum and with some media, maybe there u can open eyes to everybody

[ran222]

thanks. u were so clear. anyway the hottest part of the fans are guilty too. the ones who goes to the airpoirt to welcome sofo or tyus are surely hot fans ,but they accept all managmnet moviment. players like sofo or tyus arent players who a big team's fans should welcome. they had to be desperate for players like that.
fans should make pressure on managment. how?
well here i'm lazio fan, the soccer team. well , we are all desperate of our mediocre owner and plans. i'm not an hot lazio fan,but almost everybody decided to stay at home while lazio play.so the stadium is emplt every week.soon or late, this owner will leave surely lazio or will change his policy spending money.the problem in tel aviv is that nokia is always full in euroleague. only message and action fans should do, is stopping go to nokia. if managment will see an empty nokia weekly they must change policy or sell the club.so i think fans are guilty as the mangament

Actually, the hard core of MTA fans HATE management, if you go to MTA fans forum you can see that (to shame it's in hebrew...) - most of them wants the Management to go home if they not intend to invest money and to increase budget.

the problem is that about 7000 fans in Nokia arena are not the "real" fans IMO-

they more like the american NBA fans, that go to a game to watch a show, and not to be active during the game. those fans don't really matter what going on behind the scenes, and it's easy to manipulate them with those kind of "inside info" like Hacket+Ajince interest.

Do you think some fans maybe went to the airport for Hackett's arrival, just in case...?

James condition is still unknown - mostly because it's back problems which are very tricky.

he is not 100% for top 16.

there were some rumors about Maccabi trying to add another C, but it wasn't serious.

Management tried to make themselves look good in the eyes of the fans, so they started rumours that Maccabi wants Ajince (and it was so obvious that they don't have the money+ that Ajince is looking to go back to the NBA).

Same with Hacket - 2 days ago, after it was clear that Hacket will sign with Milano' Management suddenly started a rumour that they want Hacket...(IMO, just because they knew he will sign with Milano- so they could tell the fans :"look' we tried to add good players but they signed in other teams").

Pathetic move from management.

another note:

Blatt wants to keep J. Cohen and said that yesterday to the media, but front office wants to loan him even after James injury.
