Thousands of fans of Maccabi Tel Aviv's basketball team as well as officials past and present are paying their last respects to Ralph Klein, the legendary coach who led the team to a historic string of championships in Israel and in Europe. Klein's casket is on display in the center of the Nokia Yad Eliyahu sports arena.
Klein, who coached the team when it first won the European championship in 1977, died at age 77 after a bout with cancer.
