Maccabi falls to the Clippers

2009-10-22 15:37

Maccabi Tel Aviv lost their second and final game in the US against the Los Angeles Clippers with 96-108.

The highlight of the game was of course Doron Perkins' tripple double of 16 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 5 steals. Chuck Eidson led Maccabi in scoring with 18, while L.A.-native David Bluthenthal came back from injury, scoring 12 points. The Clippers were led by Chris Kaman who had 18 points and Sebastian Telfair who had 15.

Maccabi stayed in the game up until the final minutes of the first half, but the Clippers finished the second period on a 13-0 run, going to the locker rooms with an 11-point lead. Maccabi was never able to recover and the margin stayed at double digits throughout the rest of the game.

A moment of silence was held in memory of Moni Fanan, who commited suicide earlier this week.
