 LITHUANIA +7
Common opponent results within a short period of time is about half the criteria when determining the point spread. This is usually a good time as any to look for games that might be flying under the Radar.
Argentina crushes Lithuania 102-79 , France beats Argentina 71-64 and the outcome is FRANCE A 7 POINT FAVORITE against LITHUANIA. I'm not buying !!! But after watching Argentina play France I'm re evaluating my opinion on Argentina. They are old and slow and have a difficult time rebounding. They are -18 on the boards in 2 games. After Ginobli this team is short on talent and this is why I think France is over valued at -7. They didn't beat a good team.
 My only bet today, GL EVERYBODY

I have been looking at the Australia / China over....I don't think either team is good defensively and the Chinese coach yells at the team's translator to tell them to push the ball...(my feed for the games shows the coaches talking during the timeouts? why can't we get this in the NBA )
Good luck tomorrow 
You look @ any CFL yet for this weekend? |

Should be a good game between these two teams.
Good luck tomorrow

I think the Australia /China Over will be right around the number.
The Good and the Bad
The Good----Australia had 81 shot attempts against Spain. That is very good for a 40 minute game.
The Bad----The Chinese are getting crushed on the Board and they can't get any second chance points.
Gl with your bet

#10 Posted: 8/2/2012 12:58:58 AM WHAT ARE YOUR LEANS DIMES ON THE OTHER GAMES?
LTU VS FRANCE-7.5 --> My thoughts on this is that France has more NBA players to banner. They did well against ARG. and this olympics = country's pride. I guess it will be France outgunning LTU. 79-72.
AUS VS CHINA+8 - This is AUS's ballgame. I bet this will go lopsided. Mills will click on all cylinders :) 78-62.
TUNI VS ARG-24.5 - ARG will crush this after coming of a loss. 104-65.
NGR VS USA-41.5 - just like they did against TUN which however, they didn't cover, it will be a super lopsided game. 114-65.
BRA VS RUS-6.5 - RUS is cruising like winners in this tournament. They will beat BRA since they are running and outrebounding teams. RUS will win 94-70.
SPA VS GBR+17.5 - home court advantage will win. spain has led on its past two games by an average of 12 points only against a lowly China and Aus. GBR lost by 12.5 on the average against a good RUS team and a so-so BRA.
What are your thoughts on my bets? |
