Maccabi Tel Aviv has had a disappointing start to its EuroLeague season, suffering losses to ASVEL and Besiktas. According to ONE, the club's management is dissatisfied with the players' performance, particularly their defensive efforts.
A source within the club stated, "We seemed not to have even come out for this game. We needed to fight with extreme fury, but that didn't happen. It's impossible to win when the defense works the way it did today." Head coach Oded Katash urged the players to be more aggressive, but this call went unheeded.
"This is unacceptable, especially for a team with such a roster and such a schedule; there can be no excuses," the source emphasized. The club's leadership expects a significant improvement from the team moving forward.
