Absolute speechless. How do you allow that kind of run in a game where your tournament lives are on the line? Fields I think finished at 1/13 and Nurse 5/17. Horrendous shooting.
Semi finals tomorrow. Guessing USA will be around -13.5 or something vs Belgium. Aussies I think will be around -5 maybe against Spain..

Ok.. so we are set now for the semi finals..
USA vs Belgium. I am seeing lines of -22.5 for that game.
Australia vs Spain, a line of -8 which is surprising but Spain don’t have any answers for Cambage.
We also have 2 early games tonight for 5-8 seeds.
Canada vs China and France vs Nigeria. These 4 aides must be tired by now. Plenty of action in the last 6 days. Will do some capping..
Tournament: 6-1

Canada vs China: Over 142.5Both teams coming off poor offensive games. Both teams are the quickest teams in the WC putting up at least 63 shots per game. I don’t see Canada scoring 3 points in any quarter and that last game vs Spain was on track to go over apart from their 4Q meltdown. China can hit their 3’s as well. See little defense being played in this game and both teams finish their campaign strongly and with a good offensive game.

Thanks for the kind words and praise everyone..
Brew I don’t play too many games, I try and keep the plays low across all leagues. If I don’t see a line I like, I don’t force it. Some people say I wrote too much on here and I should just post plays, well sometimes when I writing my analysis and whilst writing it if it doesn’t feel right, then I don’t force the play..
I didn’t realise the 5-8 seeds play again tonight. That’s just silly and thexgame are racking up for those teams so their energy levels must be getting lower and lower. Will check out those game.
Big showdown, Aussies be USA. Line is -12.5 and total around 157
The Aussies weren’t good vs Spain, massive 4Q got them over the line with Cambage getting 33 points. USA team know Cambage very well, they have 3 players that have to try and stop her. Will check that out later as well.

Canada vs Nigeria: Over 143.5Ok, so Nigeria put up 69 shots per game, Canadians 65 which is pretty quick. The Nigerians don’t hit too many baskets but like I have said before, they grab offensive rebounds. Now, the Canadians are also good at offensive boards as well. Nigeria can’t stop Nurse. Canada can’t stop Akhator with her boards. Feel as though we see plenty of free throws in this game and foul trouble from both squads. Colley and Fields for Canada surely can shoot better in this game also. Hold onto your hats though, because I think this total will be very close to the line..

Tournament: 8-1
Australia vs USA: Over 162.5
Ok, this will be my final play on this WC..
Australia vs USA: Over 162.5This total was around 166.5 but dropped by 4 points. Not aware of any injuries but regardless, I like the over in this game as the USA team haven’t played much D at all this WC, and Cambage would love to really give it to the USA girls. Aussies can score and so can the US. Aussies coach Brondello knows all the girls on USA team since she coaches in the WNBA and has coached with and against this USA team. I expect both teams to hit 80+ points in this final and both teams have got players who have played on the big occasion.

Kind of guessed that the over would be your final play in the grand final which makes sense that these two teams trying to give everybody a big show to promote women basketball at the highest stage.
Also tailed your Over ealier which I honestly did not like at all (bought it down to 138.5 to play it safe). That really took some balls to play the over with Canada recent meltdowns and Nigeria konwn FT woes and both teams having played so many games in a relatively short period. But a win is a win.
Lets finish this tournament with a blast!
Thanks again for your insights - win or lose.
