Sticking with 2nd halves only for the rest today, so not much help ... sorry. Will say 53 is a damn awful lot of points to cover for the US men. Still don't feel overly comfortable though because if the US wants to, they could certainly probably win by 60 - my guess though is that taking plus points like with the opposition for the US women yesterday is a better try if the team is A. Bored or B. Let's their foot off the gas late. Or C. Disinterested and doesn't play well for stretches.
Sorry man those 3pm ET starts get me in transit to work, so I miss out if the half doesn't end by 3:40. One for the next game and maybe half time depending on the #s. Last loss was brutal. GB couldn't hit a damn thing down the stretch and still damn near went over!
8.1.12: Turkey Team Total Over 58 (-110)
Turkey's patient, cutting offense gave Team USA some problems in an exhibition game where Turkey scored 61. They shot just over 40%. They got to the line 23 times in that game. Turkey has scored 72 & 61 in their 1st two games in London.

Well that one sucked. Looked in good shape after the scoring slowed in the 3rd and then the last 5 minutes of the 4th Q got out of control. Thought it was going to squeak under still with a 6 pt cushion in the last minute ... Be back for half times.
8.2.12: Argentina Team Total Over 87.5 (-110)
Tunisia has been blasted when playing the top tier teams. Team USA just laid 110 on them & Spain scored 95 against them in a game during the build-up period before London. Argentina will come in needing a win after a poor performance in a loss to France. Expecting a comprehensive win and some big points.
Holy ****. Tunisia couldnt miss. I looked at their TT for an over too, but thought it was going to be close. Argies need a monster quarter somewhere to even have a shot. Looks like I am digging a hole today.
Interesting trend TODAY on line movements. All totals have moved incorrectly, and all sides have moved correctly (predictively) from the opening lines.
On this game ? Total moved lower. So.... Over it is
Sorry guys was not available for this last game. Was probably laying off of it although the GB handicap looked nice and is an easy cover. GB played them tough during a warm up match too.
