Khimki M. - Real Madrid

Make 3PT (+OT) Glynn Watson Jr. (USA) under 1.5

Clearly there is a cane with a coefficient here, under 1.5 should be, in my opinion, the clear favorite. He throws a lot, but the hit rate is tragic, in three games he made 2 out of 12. So per games it was 1/4, 0/2, 1/6. So why now would it be easier for Panathinaikos to score 2 3PTs? I think it will be easier for him to not make those two.

Hello.
Euroleague. Virtus against Monaco. We are going with a minus handicap for Monaco. After defeating Real in the first Euroleague stage, Virtus seems to have gone downhill, while Monaco, after losing to Žalgiris, is on the rise. Monaco is still a top 4 potential team, especially after the addition of Mirotic. The team hasn't lost any key players and has added a high-caliber scorer. After the defeat against Žalgiris, they also crushed Dubajo and defeated Milan. They also managed to defeat Paris team during the weekend, so their spirits should be high. On the other hand, Virtus does not inspire any confidence. Both against Valencia and Paris, they did not seem to have any real chances. Now, a much stronger team with many offensive options is coming. Niang looks good on defense, but one player can't do it all. Edwards, after a disappointing season in Bayern, doesn't seem like himself here. Maybe he doesn't fit in with Duško's system. In general, it's hard to find anything positive about Virtus. Even in the local league, they barely managed to defeat Udine team in overtime (with all their main players playing). Home court advantage might help, but the handicap is low and I think Monaco can easily cover it. On match day, I think the handicap will rise.
Good luck.

In my opinion, Virtus currently seems to be the worst team in the tournament. Their game is very inconsistent, and without Edwards and Niang, there's not much to play on the offensive end. Monaco is getting into their groove, and they recently won against Paris. Last week, Milan struggled but managed to defeat Peru, who I don't consider to be a strong opponent. I believe this opponent is not on the same level, and I think Peru should be a double-digit team.

Currently the teams are playing very productively, and I am waiting for another productive match from them. I would choose Valencia versus Peru, but the game will be played without spectators, which lowers the host's chances a bit. So far, Valencia looks very solid, although they are still not playing with a full lineup. Hapoel has potential, but their defensive game has been tragic so far.

Two attack-oriented teams with a successful start to the season. Both teams have experienced losses in the Euroleague, but with a highly productive performance. Although the favorites are the Israel team, the excellent form of Valencia leads one to expect a intense and high-scoring match.

So far this season, Virtus continues its poor performances from the second half of last season. Although they won against Real at home, they then suffered a defeat and struggled even in Italy. Monaco is a serious force and once again one of the main favorites to reach the final four. Therefore, Monaco may stumble, but their strength greatly surpasses that of the Italians.

Although Hapoel seems likable and has a lot of talent, the period of inconsistency is a personal concern for me, and the handicap is significant. However, Valencia is unfairly underestimated, as they are a very well-organized team. Hapoel will have time to improve during the pre-season, but there is still a lack of team synergy and stability at the beginning of the season. I will take a big risk in hoping that stability will prevail this time.

Monaco's starting five forward Diallo, who is irreplaceable in this position on the team and spends an average of 30 minutes on the court. So far this season, he has not scored more than 15 points, but always collects double-digit points.

Paris will be hosting Baskonia, a Spanish team known for their record-breaking "abilities" in the field of defense. They have only allowed their opponents to score over 100 points in one game during this season's five matches. Therefore, it is likely that we will see an open basketball game today, which would be very favorable for Paris' main attacking defender Hifi, who usually scores not less than 14 points and regularly makes at least 10 shots from the three-point zone.

In the beginning of the season, Real is not very convincing, they managed to beat Oly, but lost to ACB against the Basques. At the start of the season, they played tragically against Virtus, while Partizan seems to slowly find their form. At home, Real managed to beat Milan, and then played against Anadolu. Looking at the composition of Real without Llull, it is quite difficult to see their game, so I think Partizan can put up a fight here.

Yes, the total is huge, but the way these teams are playing... The defense is passive, there are a lot of missed shots, and the accuracy is not great either. The Basque game is still about nothing. I run and shoot, and the style is similar to that of Paris. Coaches also don't like positional attacks. Hifi is second in terms of productivity with 21.3 points, while Timothe L. is fifth with 19 points in the Basque category. Both French players will try to maintain their status in a fast-paced match. What could determine an under bet? Obviously, the poor accuracy. Sometimes when the first shots don't go in, players lose their rhythm, shoot more airballs, and make mistakes, especially at the beginning of the season. But this time, I'm taking a risk with a big over.

Hello.
EuroLeague. Paris vs Basques. We're facing Basque's plus team.
This is my second try with Basque away, maybe this time I'll be luckier 😄. Basques are showing some signs of recovery. Yes, they play their usual run and gun basketball with an abundance of 3PT and very high-scoring games. At home, both Olympiacos and Panathinaikos were very close to losing, but they pulled through with their talent. Away, they burned with Valencia. However, in the ACB league, they achieved their first victory and it was not against just anyone but against Real. Again, it was a high-scoring game (105-100) but that's the kind of basketball Paris also plays, so I think the opponent is very favorable. Forrest looked much better in Basque than in Piraeus, as did Luwawu-Cabarrot. These two will also be important in EuroLeague, I believe. Let's add the athletic Diallo, whom I always enjoy watching, and it makes for a very exciting team to watch. Yes, Howard's nonsense can be annoying at times, but sometimes it works for him.
Paris is also a running team. They impressed with their running game against Maccabi and Virtus, but both are not exactly teams with the highest talent. Maccabi may have that talent, but they had even more chaos in the first rounds. They lost to Fenerbahce without any fight. On the domestic front, they lost to Monaco over the weekend, so the mood may not be the best, but it seems like this team doesn't care much anyway. Hifi continues to shoot his ridiculous shots with unbelievable accuracy. Someday, he will have a harder day and then he'll look like Howard (well, maybe a little less). There's still a question mark over Robinson, so if he doesn't play, I think it'll feel worse than against Virtus, where the team is stronger defensively anyway.
So, we can expect crazy basketball here and it's anyone's guess who will win, like flipping a coin. But the handicap is not small and considering how Basque always plays well against Paris, I believe it will be similar here as well. Perhaps even a win. Good luck.

Hello.
Euroleague. Real vs. Partizan. We are betting on Partizan with a handicap.
Real is having a hard time getting into the groove. Although the standings show 2-1, it definitely doesn't reflect the true form of the teams. They lost to Virtus in the first round and miraculously saved themselves in the 4th period against Oly, where it seemed like the Greek team actually lost more than the Spanish team won. The match against Asvel wasn't too difficult, but they weren't a strong team and were missing important players. They also lost to Baskonia at home, who are also not in their best form. Scariolo is still figuring out how to lead the team and it's noticeable. Hezonja seems to be the only one performing consistently. Campazzo is not fitting in well with the team, which is a bit concerning.
After the humiliating defeat in the first round in Dubai, Partizan seems to have recovered. They beat Milano and Efes, both strong opponents. Brown is finally showing his potential and could become a key player in Euroleague if he continues playing like this. They also lost to Milton this week, but he hasn't fully integrated into the team yet, although he is talented. Bonga is maintaining his form from the European Championship and is looking good, although the team could use some more height (especially centers), but Tyrique can fill that gap if he doesn't foul out. Partizan's form seems to be better at the moment and the handicap is definitely significant in such a high-level match.
I wouldn't consider Real a clear favorite here, although they are playing at home and on paper they are a stronger team, but Partizan's form makes it likely to be a good match. They can definitely keep the score within 8 points. Good luck.

There is no team in Paris that is already so good that they would be considered favorites. Even though there is complete chaos in the play-offs, there are still players who can make an impact. Diallo looks great, TLC has stepped up to the next level in the beginning of the season's offense, and Forest continues to surprise. They also have a lot of reserves with Howard or Samanic, who can play exceptionally well against a weak defensive team. Paris is heavily dependent on Hifi and although he has been playing well so far, players of this style will eventually have a bad night, and without him it is difficult to see any positive outcomes.

Real completely lacks identity as a team. Campazzo and Tavares are not a good fit for this coach's style of play. Feliz is starting instead of Campazzo, but it doesn't seem like he can match the level of the Euroleague. Hezonja seems unhappy with everything that is happening with the team and roles. The only thing left from this team is the name of Real. Even though Partizan has been performing poorly in away games in recent seasons, they have a better team and coach at the moment, so the odds are too high.

3 games played, 3PT attempts: 3, 3, and 1. Shots made: 3. All shots made during the second game, finishing with 3/3 3PTs. First game 0/3, second game 0/1. Not taking many 3PT shots. Last season in EuroLeague, shooting percentage was 31.9%. Playing style is completely different, and now will face smaller players, while Campazzo is usually attached to the 3-point line. Carlisle's weapons are mid-range shots and close to the basket, which will also be a more productive solution when attacking Tavares. I believe he will attempt 1.2 shots per game, and with that percentage and coefficient ratio, it is not a bad option.

The two most running teams, with one of them completely defenseless. Although 184 points in the Euroleague seems like a lot, when these teams meet, it wouldn't be a surprise if the limit was set at 190 points. Baskonia played a non-productive game against PAO last week, but over the weekend they scored over 100 points against Real Madrid.

Baskonia will not be without Peru for a long time, it should open sometime in the future, but today I am going with the hosts, who should be especially favorable to play against such a team that is suitable for getting involved in a race for points. Baskonia can beat any team on a good day, but I would wait for them to play Peru at home first. Away, the team is very vulnerable and I believe that Paris will take Peru today.

Another interesting team in terms of offense and weak defense. They may not win every match, but they play very productively. Baskonia finally won a match and will have even more confidence in their offense. We have long known about the abilities of the Paris team.

Historically, this is an interesting matchup. Želko always finds gaps in Real's defense, especially when attacking with 3-pointers through Tavares. Partizan has strengthened their offense this season, and Real always scores a lot of points at home. I think we will see a high-scoring game here.

Two intelligent coaches, who should not allow their players to lose their heads and only jump to attack. Partizan plays high-quality basketball on offense, but they do it by playing smartly. According to the number of attacks, both teams are ranked at the bottom of the tournament table. The double week is also a factor, the teams have to maintain their strength and rotate players for the second game. The total is high, Real with Scariolo is slightly different.

According to the number of attacks, both teams are ranked at the bottom of the tournament table. Double week is also a factor, teams need to conserve energy and rotate players for the second game. The total is high, Real with Scariolo is a bit different. Real doesn't seem confident to me, and the wasted lead against Bask and defeat does not inspire trust. The guests have something to offer.

Paris is hosting Baskonia, a Spanish team that is known for their record-breaking abilities in defense. So far this season, they have only allowed their opponents to score over 100 points in one game out of their five matches. Therefore, it is likely that we will see an open game of basketball today, which would benefit Paris' main attacking defender Hifi, who usually scores more than 14 points and regularly makes at least 10 three-pointers.
