    WTF? You mean for the mens' friendly on the 19th?



    Surely a mistake, books will never pay. I'm English and Team GB sucks. Anyway, no-one will be less than 10-11pt dogs to the US, and GB should be at least 30pt dogs, they are below Brasil IMO

    Highly doubt they honor that, massive mistake considering as pointed out in this thread GB is worse than Brazil. The line might be lower because of the travel/short turnaround but no way a book honors those early numbers.

    Looks like an obvious bad line. Even if team USA sent out its B team which is common a Love, Davis, Williams, Iggy and Harden starting lineup would be heavy favorites over GB. GB is an underrated team but not in the same league as Brazil.

    Yeah you're on bath salts if you think Tony will pay that out.

    They're just waiting on Pinnacle to hang a line to re-release

    The women's are up at -32.5..... so the men's will either be that or higher.... most likely 42.5..... and I'd still take that

    Yeah that seems low, overreaction to the Brazil game? Brazil >>> GB and match up really well with the US and they got 32.5.

    GB +32.5 any day. That's been the trend in these warm ups.

    the word is , england looks to limit Deng's minutes if the game is getting too physical as they dont want to risk his injured wrist. a major adjustment with USA team is the starting of durant; will look to tweak their offensive output.

    Yup, The looked too much into the D.R for Brazil and too much into Brazil for GB.

    Agreed with the GB line, it was at least 5 pts. off IMO. Nice hit again. Two easy US cashes in a row. I just think Brazil is underrated in the international basketball community. I doubt a warmup with the D. R. influenced linesmakers at all.
