I don't think that our Žalgiris will falter after the match against Serbia. Žalgiris currently looks like a positive Euroleague team in the early stages of the season. They have maintained a strong defensive core from last season and with their new signings, their offense looks very tempting. However, Milan still doesn't convince me, especially after the last match against Bayern, and now they have an away game in Kaunas. I believe that Žalgiris should be able to cover this deficit at home.
Ulė remains a key player on the team, spending minutes on the court as an over player. Today, I believe we will once again have at least 25 minutes on the court and will try to defeat Žalgiris and secure the advantage for third place, as it is important to attack the leader of our opponents, Shields. Ulė is definitely capable of making a few shots and I believe she should score such an over.
The Zalgiris players do not demonstrate effective defense against the opponents, and now the injured Milan has arrived, who is responsible for a large portion of points and can get past the defenders. He is a player who has a strong wrist and can excel in individual games. In the local competition, he averaged 14.5 and 14.6 points per game. His role may be different in Euroleague, but today his contribution in offense will be crucial, especially after such poor performances against Bayern.
Although Žalgiris started the season not bad, I wouldn't say Milan had a bad start either, just a bit unfortunate to drop a couple of matches that could have been in their favor. Looking solely at the coefficient, which seems a bit high overall, Žalgiris could definitely fall into a pit and, as they tend to do with weaker teams, lose points. So I'm taking a risk with the thought that the coefficient is worth the risk, and in live games I'll try to catch a positive trend, as I believe Žalgiris can have spurts throughout the game.
Milan in Munich looked tragically. It may not be expected of Kaunas, but I believe that Žalgiris will secure a win against Peru. Milan does not have a front line, as LeDay and Nebo do not play, and in the center position, Booker and Dunston are both particularly vulnerable in defense, so it should not be difficult for Žalgiris to attack. Lorenzo Brown will not play today either, who didn't look too bad. I am looking forward to Žalgiris' return to the period in Peru.
I won't say anything new, Zalgiris has been playing very well lately and scoring at a high percentage. Zvezda has also improved and should have balanced out, but had a nightmare ending and went over again. Today's opponent should slow down the pace, as they have many injuries and cannot offer the same quality as Zalgiris. Zalgiris also has room for improvement in defense, and today seems like a great opportunity to do so.
It's time to cheer for Fener, they have divided enough for Peru, although the game is not intense, they still need time, but their opponent is also struggling and it's doubtful if they can score in their defensive basket.
I believe it's worth the risk, as he usually gets an average of 25 minutes per game, excluding the first match of the season. Knowing his skill, he doesn't need many opportunities to score such a total.
After the tragic game against Dubai, I think we should see a different picture. Although I had similar expectations after the game against Crvena Zvezda. Fenerbahce has injury problems, but even with the players they have, they should be able to avoid defeat against Bayern. The game against Dubai was a tragic miss, but today, I hope to see a different picture. Bayern is not known for its good defense and they tend to concede a lot of points away, so I am expecting a high-scoring game today.
It won't be easy for Bayern away against Fener who got such an advantage from Dubai, but playing in attack should be much easier than against Milan. Fener plays at home with a good pace and has options in attack. The downside is that Tucker is still missing, but even without him there is some benefit coming from Wilbekinas. Bayern is a fast basketball player and such scores with the Bayern team seem a little small.
