    Which of you degenerates would lay any $ on Team USA basketball -48 vs. China (+48)

    There's an exhibition tonight at 8 PM Eastern. Team USA is -48 against a youthful China (+48). USA clobbered the aged Argentinians on Friday. This is the 2nd of a total of 5 exhibition matches until the olympics begin in Brazil in a couple weeks.

    Total is 181. I could see it going over pretty easily if China can score 70

    Take China +48 because the Chinese are very hard workers.

    Very cynical of team USA to play all their exhibitions stateside. Look at their exhibition schedule... all the good teams said feck off we're playing in brazil or argentina, not the golden state or the windy city.

    Well, I got to see more of this game than I did the USA vs. Argentina game last Friday. Needless to say the line was razor sharp. Team USA barely got the cover by winning the game by 49 points.

    I will say this, Team USA played sloppy as sh*t and still won by that many points. They need to get more focused if they want to beat all the Euro teams with ease. China just couldn't buy a bucket if their life depended on it. USA turned the ball over many times believe it or not. They played this game like it was a Harlem Globetrotters game or something lol. But it wasn't pure scoring on both ends like in an NBA All-Star Game, hence the reason this game sailed way UNDER.

    Guys did you miss Team USA's exhibition rematch with China in Oakland? Kevin Durant lit it up right at the beginning. Gave the Golden State Warriors fans what they wanted. Planet Asia in California (Los Angeles on Sunday, Oakland on Tuesday). Asians run Cali baby! USA won by 50. Covered the initial lines, but not the closing lines closer to -51. LOL. What a crazy line.

    Vegas have been pretty sharp on team USA lines in recent years. Wasting your time here pal.

    The Olympic exhibition slate concludes with tournaments in Sao Paulo (Bra/ Aus/ Ltu/ Chn) and Cordoba (Arg/ Srb/ Fra/ Cro) while USA sit in USA and Spain sit in Spain. More value in these little tournaments I expect.

    They play Nigeria tonight in the exhibition finale. The Blazers' Aminu & Ezeli have both been ruled out for the Olympics due to insurance issues (they play exhibitions that come with injury risks and then miss the main event?!). The line is -45 right now. Might slide as punters hear of the cuts.

    I think it's pretty heavy chalk right now at Heritage (sitting at about -48.5).

    USA fell far short of covering vs. Venezuela in Chicago on Friday.

    Nigeria got humiliated by this team 4 years ago so this one has a special meaning to them. I think they'll cover it. Argentina lost by 37 to USA ...I expect a 40pt drubbing.
