Greetings

Any suggestions for Lithuania-France and Turkey-Germany?

Hello there, today is a real tough day. This Group is "real" eurobasket so, the matchups are tough and the results hard to predict. I am capping the games at the moment. I wish, i ll have something interesting soon.
Good day

Lucky1 · 09-09-11, 06:08 AM

Hmm, you are right, it's hard to predict something. But anyway, I'm thinking about Lithuanian and Turkey winning. Looking forward to hearing something interesting from you.

I'm interested in your thoughts regarding Serbia vs Spain.

I like the under in the Germany/turkey game.

I will pass this game. Just a small bet on Spain -8

VikesPhanatic84 · 09-09-11, 07:08 AM

The over under in the SPAIN game went from 157.5 to 161.5 in the last 10 mins

France with nice run

tullamore21 · 09-09-11, 06:28 PM

I have a play.
This will be my Huge play of the tournament.
I didn't post my Units, but i will raise my bet 6 times at this pick.

Russia will dominate at rebounding and inside game.
Greece has to hit over 50% at 3PTs, if they want to have luck to take the win, but still... Russia is a better team. They only have to turn the ball ove less, than usual and they will take an easy win.

Russia vs Greece
pick Russia ML at 1,65 for the Huge BET of the tourney

Good Luck

This is an 8+ point game for Russia. There is wrong line at -3,5 for Russia. It should be placed at 5,5-6,5 points.
Russia is a team without point guard and a team that allows threes. Greece will hit some, but noway let them take the victory.
Russia wants the fourth of the other group at QFs, so they will take first place by winning today and drop down FYROM at last game.

I am too confident for this.

JBT · 09-10-11, 05:24 AM

Does the fact that Russians have already qualified for the next round not concern you? What if they choose to preserve some of their players? Fear of unnecessary injury might be present too...

Greece has already qualified too.
Greece's victory against Slovenia didn't matter at all at the teams progress. Greece is at the QFs. And Greece is 2nd or 3rd.

David Blatt needs this win to play for the first place at the last game against FYROM. They will do everything the can to win tonight.

Russia ML is a decent pick.
Russia -3 is decent too, but you never know with Greeks... This is the reason i don't call it "LOCK".

In my opinion it will be a 8+ points game.

Good Luck

tullamore21 · 09-10-11, 01:30 PM

Greece is shooting 5 of 5 beyond 6,75m

So unreal

tullamore21 · 09-10-11, 01:35 PM

Russia has lost 2 dunks...
are you kidding me?

tullamore21 · 09-10-11, 01:42 PM

42-39 for Russia at Halftime, but Greece performs its best game at the tourney.

Vreston · 09-10-11, 01:58 PM

I wish you luck my friend.

I put my trust in Greece more than once in this tournament. They burned me in a game they could have won against FYROM if they were more focused. They have blown leads in a lot of games. Even though they don't have a good peripheral shot, they insist on taking 3pointers. They're doing it again today. They were up by 5 in the 2nd quarter and they started the 3s and they Russians scored 7-0 on them and they are down at the half. If they play inside the paint they have a chance. Let's see the second half. I stayed away from this game so I don't have any money to lose so I hope you cash!

tullamore21 · 09-10-11, 02:02 PM

Kostas Koyfos has a great game. Despite he played a few minutes his performance is decent. He is alone against 3 Big Russians

tullamore21 · 09-10-11, 02:16 PM

End of 3rd quarter.
Russia dominating down the hoops.
up by 8 points.

Let's see...

so true...
I hate fading Greece to be honest, a team that used to overturn the games, a team with heart and determination. It was clear in my eyes, that Russia will dominate, but they are Greeks, you know...

LRKontroll · 09-10-11, 04:14 PM

What you think about Serbia tomorrow ?

I think that they will revenge the WC semis last year...

Serbia seems to be the play tomorrow. Turkey is not the team we expected to be. Turkoglu is bored... and they are not concentraded. The Serbians are crazy, they can demolish their opponents or die at the last shot. Anyway, i will post my picks later.

JBT · 09-10-11, 05:06 PM

Congrats man! Whenever I expect underdogs to step up they shit their pants... and when I don't, they usually beat my favorites by double digits, LMAO

I'd like Serbia to win tomorrow, but I'm afraid I'm gonna end up being disappointed once again...

I know what you are talking about. The best proof was France against Turkey. France is by far better team, but suddenly they lost their 15 point lead during last 6 minutes of the game and they didn't cover the 5 point spread.
They faced Lithuania yesterday and they crashed it down performing great at the whole game.
Some strange results at this tourney.

Check FYROM, check Finland... two teams that in public's mind are so weak...
FYROM is playing for the top of its group and Finland plays to advance to the next level, the QFs...

unexpected for sure

hope the best for you tomorrow.
