____________________________
Czech Republic v Croatia
Croat is the biggest surprised of the tournament. They had taken down ESP, yes they had smacked down Europe's best team 75-71. The amazing thing is, they had 24 turned over vs ESP's 11. However, they had shoot 50% FG while held Spain to 41%, and bomb away 9 x 3's. Their W/L = 3-3.
Czech on the other hand is a solid W/L = 5-1 record, with an average 4 winning points. They have a sound interior half court and 3's defensive stop against most teams in the competitions. While average around 37% FG but they too held their opponents' FG to around 35% or around 60 ppg.

Take under 132.5 points

Good luck on your plays. But why are these totals so much lower than WNBA? Are these games under 40 minutes?

4 x 10 mins qrters. Unlike Wnba, these are raw young under 20 & mostly non pro players, but could be up and coming pro just like Aussie e. Cambage currently playing for Tula .

So it's not uncommon to see average FG % as low as 30 % per team per game. will see Half court & low post game oriented throughout.

Does this mean coaching plays a greater role than individual talent? Kind of like college hoops?
