One play that I'm jumping all over and early.

Basketball - 9537 Croatia/Spain over 149½ -110 for Game
4units to win 3.6units

Croatia jacks the 3, and can hit it too.

Spain averages over 80pts a game, Croatia in the high 70's(that's with a HORRIBLE game against Argentina)

Another one, these are some generous opening lines.

Basketball - 9541 Australia/USA under 179 -110 for Game
4units to win 3.6units

When they played the first time exhibition, Bogut didn't play and the USA won by 11. The US is better, but I'm not sure about 31pts(seems like a good bet since the Aussies are playing great of late.) The final was 163pts.

I don't see the USA scoring 100 here, and I don't see Aussies breaking 80.

They both look solid Bucs, particularly that first one involving Croatia and Spain.

No, not as much, because I bet 15units on that -21 Aussie game, and it was the #1 seed over a bad team.

I still like it alot as both teams pretty much average around 80 points, and I expect the same and I expect a close game. One team is going to score 80, and the other is going to score 70...the rest is gravy.

Hey Bucs, I see that you and Patrick are on different ends of the Spain-Croatia game, with you on the over 149.5 and him on Spain at -13.
Now you jumped on your total very early because you said you really liked it and that it basically stood out for you. Patrick on the other hand said Spain at -13 was his best bet of the 4 games.

My question to you is what are your thoughts on Spain and the spread and can you see them covering this number?

Spain is definately a better team. Croatia is going to rely on the 3ball, they're going to sink their shots.

I haven't looked at the spread ALOT. However, if you want a spread bet today, -4 on ARG is a joke. That line should be more around -7. They're the best team other than USA.

Thank you for that Bucs and I will take you up on that advice, much appreciated as always. Are you planning an Argentina play yourself in addition to your current plays?

Interesting that you mention -4 is a joke and yet I see that Shumakov has placed wagers on Greece at +4.5 and also SU.

Like under in that game alot!

Wtf.
Now you like the under in the Spain-Croatia contest and the over in that game was Bucs early play.
Now it seems there are quite a few differnce of opinions coming in off the radar.

I think it must be noted that Croatia most definately played the better competition. I still see Spain as the better team because they can score inside when need be. Croatia is a good passing team who can flat out shoot the 3 better than anyone. I think their ability to shoot the 3pt is why I like the OVER in this game so much.

I honestly think the only way that this OVER doesn't cover is if Croatia doesn't score 60points. It has only happened once, and that was early in a horrific game where they shot 33% from the field and 20% from 3 land. They've played better as a team and shot alot better as the tournament has gone on.

Spain is going to score 80, Croatia will get to 60points. The rest are what will put this OVER.

Very nice analysis relating to the total for this game Bucs.
Would you consider Spain (-13) as a play also based on your analysis, that being Spain scoring 80 and Croatia 60?
