earned high praise
from Earvin
"Magic" Johnson after he
and his fellow Lakers down-
ed the Israeli basketball
team in a recent exhibi-
tion game in Los Angeles.
"Maccabi has a lot of good
players and we had a tough
game," Magic Johnson said
after the Lakers prevailed,
129-106, before an enthusi-
astic sellout crowd of close to
17,000.
"Maccabi also had a lot of
fans, and we're not used to
that when we're playing at
home in the Forum," added
the ex-Michigan State Uni-
versity star, who was used as
the stopper against the
Israeli team.
Maccabi coach Tsvika
Sherf was proud of his team,
which gave away size and
experience to the Lakers.
The game gave his players
valuable experience, he said.
"Don't forget whom we were
playing against. It is the
dream of every player in the
world to go up against the
Lakers," who won five world
championships in the 1980s.
"Four times we almost
came back, but we couldn't
keep up the power," Sherf
said. "In the fourth quarter,
we missed a lot of layups and
let down on defense. Ob-
viously, we need more expe-
rience."
Lakers coach Mike
Dunleavy, making his debut
with the team, said his
players had to remain men-
tally tough to beat Maccabi.
The game was played under
the European zone to zone
rules, not allowed in the Na-
tional Basketball Associ-
ation. Dunleavy said his
team practiced its zone
defense for a day-and-a-half.
Sherf used all 12 of his
players, while Dunleavy
used all 16 of his. His
strategy included sending in
Magic Johnson whenever
Maccabi threatened to pull
even.
The enthusiastic Maccabi
rooters, many from the
sizeable Israeli community
in Los Angeles, occasionally
booed Lakers attempting
free throws and lustily
chanted, "Hey, hey, Ma-ca-
bi."
Laker fans, mainly 2,000
youngsters invited from the
black and Hispanic neigh-
borhood, responded with
"VLAH-day, VLAH-day," to
Nadav Henefeld:
Pace tired him.
cheer on the Lakers' 7-foot-1-
inch center from Yugoslavia,
Vlade Divac.
The game, billed as "A
Courtship of Nations," was
the climax of Maccabi's five-
day stay in Los Angeles,
although the public rela-
tions aspects of the visit
were never forgotten and at
times smothered the sports
event itself.
The hoopla before the
game and at halftime in-
cluded 100 flag-carriers,
hundreds of young dancers
from Jewish day schools, a
bevy of Lakers girls in skin-
tight uniforms, popular
Israeli vocalist Ofra Haza
singing "Hatikvah" and
statements by Consul-
General Ran Ronen and
other dignitaries.
The occasion showed the
LA Israeli and American
Jewish communities can
work together on a major
project and also gave the
150,000 to 200,000 resi-
dent Israelis a chance to
publicly display both their
number and their affluence,
especially at a $500-a-plate
dinner on Monday evening.
Before playing the Lakers,
the Maccabi players practic-
ed against a Stephen S. Wise
Day School team; visited
Disneyland and Universal
Studios, ate barbecue and
signed autographs for
youngsters.
Organizers of the visit
were the American Com-
mittee for the Tel Aviv
Foundation and the U.S.
Committee Sports For
Israel, with profits from the
game donated to the Mac-
cabi youth programs in
Israel. In the game, the
Lakers made the first two
baskets and then Maccabi
tied the score at 6-6. But
after that, the Lakers were
