It was a very tough loss in Tel Aviv, a 94-92 thriller with a last-second open three from the corner by Jeff Brooks that was in and out. Olimpia played an up-tempo game in Tel Aviv, led for most of the night but it was a close game right from the beginning. The final few minutes showed a lot of lead changes, the last one came off two free throws made by Alex Tyus. Then DeAndre Kane added one and Olimpia went to the offense down by two. The ball found Brooks open in the corner, \u201cit wasn\u2019t the shot that we worked for but it was a really good shot. It\u2019s not the reason we lost tonight\u201d, Coach Pianigiani said mentioning the seven transition threes made by Maccabi with Johnny O\u2019Bryant scoring 32 points in a memorable game. Olimpia had six players in double figures, including a great game by Brooks. Kaleb Tarczewski had a dominating aerial first half but it was affected by an injury that occurred very early in the game to his right hand. He kept playing anyway. Nemanja Nedovic, who had a 17-point game, asked out for the final few possessions because he didn\u2019t feel good with his legs. Everything went against Olimpia right to the last shot that looked to be very good and it wasn\u2019t.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
