Maccabi is on fire after winning six straight games with an explosive offense led by Wade Baldwin (at least 14 points in 13 consecutive games) in the backcourt and Josh Nebo (double-digits scoring in eight straight games) in the paint. Barca took a thrilling 90-92 win when these teams met in November. Nico Laprovittola led that effort with 23 points and Barca crashed the boards to the tune of 16 offensive rebounds. With the home team needing a win to keep control of home-court advantage in the playoffs, expect the intensity of a final between a pair of title candidates.
