Tyus made a huge block, then hustled downcourt in time for another huge dunk to make it 35-30 after two and a half minutes. Thrilling plays by Linhart and Pargo (to Tyus for the points) put Maccabi's lead in double digits, 43-32, but once again Eilat came back, and the half ended with Maccabi up by four, 49-45.
