Baskonia - Valencia

Even though Valencia attacked the basket 16 times, they still lost at home, but the series is not over and I believe Valencia will do better on the road and everything is still possible for them. The odds are good, and Valencia is a stronger team. The bad games are in the past, and I think it would be too much for Murcia to win 2 games in a row.

To me, the total seems too big, the importance of the competition is enormous. Both Valencia and Murcia can play and have a chance to win. In Spain's league, Murcia's defense rating is second only to Real and Unicaja. It might be a little worrying that both teams are above the average in terms of pace. But they played twice in the regular season and had two under results, not even scoring in overtime in one of them.

The risk-taking bet only resulted in a small profit: after a tragic game against Morabanc Andorra where they lost 99-71, Valencia played poorly in the first playoff game and lost 96-86. It is impossible to make any more mistakes, as a second loss would represent a small chance of achieving anything. The coach is already on the hot seat, and I believe that a team of Valencia's caliber should not experience such a failure. However, the coefficient satisfies me.
