Leaning hard on this over, but i'm telling you Nochioni is a huge factor however you play this game. And his status is a questionmark.

posted this in the quasi-olympic forum down in the nba section.

going under the total. 183 is an extremely high total for this matchup. united states averaging 100+ against completely overmatched teams doesnt mean much to me. its no surprise argentina has shown some pretty respectable defense in these games -- their key nba guys come from teams who (what a concept!) actually know how to play fundamental defense. theres no doubt the americans are better and will get their share of easy baskets over the course of the game. but i just do not see it being the layup line and dunk contest theyve become accustomed to so far. 95-80ish sounds about right. we'll see. strong play.

i like lighting money on fire i guess.

If only we could get a pre game philosophy from the Argentina coach. If his approach is to slow things down then this could go way under.

That makes you and me both, prodigy. I'm on the under as well.

Playing Argentina and looking for a middle. I can see Argentina hanging with the US in the first half before USA's depth wears them down and they pull away in the 2nd half. BOL
