Any opinions on tomorrow (Monday 22nd Aug) games :-

Rwanda v Togo 10:30GMT

Senegal v Chad 12:30GMT

Central African Republic v Tunisia 15:00 GMT

Morocco v Angola 17:30GMT

Bell Curves · 08-21-11, 11:23 PM

Alas, Tulsa's horrible offense rears its ugly head at the end of today's game.
The Indiana team looks really efficient. It's a shame they'll probably make the playoffs as the first seed, and then lose in the first round to Atlanta.

Thx Kobstopa...Just one ques....

On the Senegal v Chad match you are projecting Senegal win by 34 but you're saying the play is SENEGAL -38 (ie. you are saying they fail to cover). The under of 155 looks a better play surely ?

Thx for your great work.

my instinct say they can cover & I wouldn't be surprise if a 50 points blown out, the under 155 is looked to better than 50/50 or more a 70% fav

so I leave it to u, good luck

Gotcha ! Im really liking that Togo play. I watched their game vs the Central Afr Rep and they lived with them until the 4th Qtr. I think I will play that one strong and even take a piece of the 3.8/1 money line.

wow, big action coming in for Senegal vs Chad; the wiseguy hit the under now

tullamore21 · 08-22-11, 05:12 AM

33 points down Togo...
plus the fact that there is no defence. they burned me two times.
i had under 34 points each of the periods... they scored 35 and 34...

wilfor1 · 08-22-11, 05:23 AM

Togo went out on the piss last night

kobstopa · 08-22-11, 05:46 AM

Togo drawn dead, I hope the under 143.5 is still hold

kobstopa · 08-22-11, 05:48 AM

man that's crazy how can rwanda came out like Angola like that !!!

alamo · 08-22-11, 11:10 AM

James May the star Central African player is a disgrace. He should be sent home after his effort today. 3 shocking games by him. Throw him out of the competition.

so is Togo, a team was hailed & highly regard by Mike Krzyzewski.

Any plays for tues Kob ?

kobstopa · 08-23-11, 02:15 AM

I have been on the road all day, so will relies on my iPad & pocket wifi instead of sit at home with my supercomputer.

will have no Africa champ pick for the moment

Wnba

I like LA -2.5 to cover on the road against Was,
take Chicago -3.5 to dominate at home & lock down against upper tempo dream.
sea/sas to go under 142.5 points as LJ is back, these are 2 solid defensive teams, especially storm at home, I think score production about 67 64 = 131 points around these nos.

good luck to all of us

I don't think this LA team is fundamentally sound even with Parker back. They make way too many turnovers and performed poorly in the last 3 matches. Also, hme dogs doing really well this season too. I'd be really interested to read an elaboration of your take of this match.

I agree home underdog doing well, but bookmaking is pushing it with this line. Parker do make a big different especially against sub .500 teams where they love to double her in the post & kick out for 12 footer, or low post pass , I think these last matches had given them time to adjust & I think this game will be further improve as they had a closed door (miami heats style drill), but I like their offense which will work well against bottom rank teams while on the road. and yes I was first skeptic that Parker can help LA via offense but she can facilitate well as a point forward (don Nelson a pioneer in these concept, Orlando magics used it with hedo against height mis match etc)

It seems Ajavon's tooth problems havn't gone away since playing Indiana. Maybe I'd have to take LA or the under...

Los Angeles 86, Washington 82 (OT)
Atlanta 83, Chicago 80
Seattle 63, San Antonio 55

Chicago committed 21 turned over, a give away of their home court, very surprise upset here. But on to the next one.

Nice 2-1 night for you!
I still don't like the Sparks though; they are struggling to beat the two worst teams in the league.
