What i dont get is
the teams avrages are
USA 95pts/game
Autralia 86pts/game
total=180pts
Yes I understand they may play more defence in this game
but still
that is 28pts over the line
with the same logic
the line of the Mens Usa-Argentina yesterday
should have been Under/Over155
since they have about the sames stats then the women match-up of today
Why for Women
they are projected to score
20% less pts for both teams
than normal
and not for the mens games
Actually Boom, looking at his wagers for Saturday, he doesn't include that under at all come to think of it and I'm curious to know why now myself. Is this maybe a case of you simply not liking it as well as the two favorites Patrick? (if you're about that is)
:howdy:
I agree with PB. That 138 is so damn hard to take the UNDER on. I think wait on the movement, if any. I think it's a win-win situation to wait.
As far as the USA/AUS game, I think the play is the over. They gave up almost 60 points to a defunct China offense who pretty much shot poorly and played poorly.
USA women scored 67 points against the best defensive team in the tournament, while shooting 33% from the field. Australia won't give USA the defensive troubles.
I like both USA -8.5 and the over.
I like Russia -8 and MAYBE the UNDER...waiting for the line to move, cuz it's a win-win situation to wait.
Again, I've been getting wrecked, so fade closely
I don't like looking back to over a years time. Players like Parker, Fowles, Taurasi, and Lawson weren't around in that span. I'm not saying they're going to score 100pts, but the points will certainly come easier. Also, against Russia it wasn't as much of matter of them not coming easy versus them missing NUMEROUS layups, and NUMEROUS free throws.USA will not be able to score on Aussie like they did against other teams. Vice and versa. They have played each other before within the last 4 years. USA will have to slow their pace a little to insure high percentage baskets. If the line was in the 140's it would be a lock. It being in the 150's and bound to increase, Ill wait for the under. I got suckered into the USA +24 against russia. I am not getting suckered into that over. It is do able and I would not be surpirse if it hit. Thats why I am betting very small. :toast:

nothing on the fiba.com site
(no games results except the final)
Anyway Thanks all for your input
I am stuburn
i will still play the Over and probably losehno:
i hear ya...i definately like both spreads then i do the over/unders, but the spreads have been killing me...
2 .5 losses today, fuck them books!!
the cruelest part is i was going to buy a point before i made the -5.5 on spain, but i was confident in spain to win by around 10-13 pts
