Less than 24 hours after their loss at Ramat Hasharon, Ramat Hen shook up their roster. The team released bosmans Marianna Raguz & Rada Vidovic, and signed Tamara Moore, who played in Israel the last two seasons.
Anda Ramat Hasharon was quick to sign Vidovic inplace of Maja Drozg.
New foreigner for Raanana Hertzelia too
"I love the team and the players very much and they say love conquers all, but I guess for us it's not working. When things aren’t going well you think about changes, but I tried to put it off because I don’t like changes and I believe in our players, but I guess there are some things we have to deal with and not avoid".
Shiki Falah had those words to say following last night's
loss at Ramat Hasharon. Ramat Hen only won 2 out of six games this season, and despite the obvious talent on their roster, things just didn’t click. Ramat Hen decided to change their conception and bring an American guard instead of both Bosmans – Raguz & Vidovic – two proven players in our league that both won Championships last season (Raguz with Gospic in Croatia and Vidovic in Israel with Hapoel Tel Aviv).
In six games with Ramat Hen Raguz averaged 8.3 points (51.6% from 2, 11.1% from 3), 2.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. Vidovic scored 10.5 points (42.9% from 2, 30.3% from 3), and added 3.2 rebounds and 1.7 steals per game.
Tamara Moore (5'10, 26) played for Hapoel Haifa Motzkin last year and led them to the playoff semi finals, where they were eliminated by Ramat Hen. Moore, one of the most versatile players we've seen in recent years, scored 20.3 points per game and added 6.7 rebounds and 3.4 assists for Motzkin. Moore played in Israel in 04/05 as well, where she played with DeTrina White for Raanana Hertzelia. This summer Moore played with the LA Sparks and started 33 of 34 games. She scored 6.1 points in 18.6 minutes per game.
Anda Ramat Hasharon signed Rada Vidovic to replace the disappointing Maja Drozg, and the team is making every effort to get FIBA to approve the transaction so that Vidovic could play in the Eurocup game on Thursday against Dynamo Moscow Region.
