    I will be.

    Will take Japan v who ever they play OVER every game, did great on this in the warm up games the hit easily. Japan runs the floor and can score a bit but they can't stop anybody. First one is only 159.5 which seems really low.

    I lean towards Puerto Rico -2.5 tomorrow. Their league is somewhat decent , plenty of players playing there with major roles and big amount of mins. Team would be wild card but I expect nice team spirit and winner in their opening . Please share all your picks and GL

    Started looking into these lines for the day 1 games.

    As I mentioned was going to bet Japan overs every game (it's on day 2 anyway), Turkey play slow grind it out offense but doesn't worry me too much just means I get a low number. Germany play similar and they hit 169 (just a friendly though).

    Some big spreads to start Serbia are very good but 30 points seems a lot, Angola aren't complete rubbish but no bet at this stage.

    One spread that stands out is Ivory Coast +11.5 v China. Yeah China has home court and the fans will be right into this but they are a very average team to put it lightly. Them giving double digits to anyone seems far too much.

    Bit of a random one but I think that Italy/Phillipines total is either going to miss by 20 or hit by 20 can't decide which one yet! Lean the unders for most of the other games except might be some points in the Sth Korea/Argentina game, think there will be plenty of 3s attempted just need them to go in and a reasonable pace to the game by FIBA standards.

    Only play is Japan/Turkey over 159.5 at this stage but will see what happens closer to game time. Quite interested in live betting these opening games.

    International basketball is much more physical than NBA basketball, the Australian team is tough, they are built well for international play, they beat the US team in an exhibition team and have a lot of NBA talent.

    Super weird that Australia and Candada booked friendlies against each other given they're in the same group. Watched both of them and Aus looked terrible both games (won one, still weren't flash) then what do you know they look good against the USA, think you're on to something picking Australia.

    Looking like the 30 points to Angola might not be enough early.

    Lot of scoring so keep an eye on that to see if that trend continues as there is some very low totals coming up.

    Love how bookies don't really do their math and give 5.5over for Kalnietis assists which was done in first half and cashed 800 easy

    Thinking about - 7.5 3rd q lithuania

    In days where we have live betting and minute to minute view of game what's the point of prematch lines. I had a thought on betting Germany today +6.5 but now I can grab +9.5
