USA/Australia game

Anyone betting this? Line is

USA -30.5, O/U 191

Kind of like the under here, figure we see around 185 points or so. Ausralia will try and mimic what Russia did, and slow down the tempo to try and keep it somewhat competitive. Laying over 30 points is too scary, with garbage time at the end.

i dont know...australia likes to pressure in the backcourt. well at least they did vs China. if they do that to U.S, its just going to be fast breaks all game for U.S

I won't play the USA spread or over and under. I see USA winning but I'm not sure if they will cover the spread. If I had to chose I pick the under in this match.

Guys,

Good match up in the basketball today with Germany taking on Angola.

Germany should be able to overwhelm Angola with their superior height. The Angolans all play in their domestic league and whilst they had some good results in the last world champs they no longer have the element of surprise or any height.

The Germans have 3 seven footers whilst no Angolans are more than 6 foot 8. The Germans should be able to dominate the paint and get off very high % shots. If the Germans protect the ball they should win easily.

Take Germany -11.5 at $1.90 with Betfair.

Guys,

Another good match up in the basketball today, this time in the Womens with Latvia taking on Belarus.

Both teams aren't prolific point scorers, and you'll find it will be a pretty tight tussle in the early rounds.

Take under 141.5 total match points at $1.90 with Betfair
