Maccabi Tel Aviv - Crvena Zvezda

Real has not won away this season yet. 4 losses in all tournaments. In Euroleague, they lost to Virtus, Zvezda, and Maccabi. In the ACB league, they lost to Baskonia. They don't have the sharpest knives in the drawer and it's not looking good for Real. At least 3 losses are expected. Real is not playing well today. Scariolo is struggling, not sure how to make Maledon perform well. Campazzo and Tavares can't find their place because the game is too strict, and Campazzo is more of a "flow" player. Bayern is not backing down this season and they just signed Spencer Dinwiddie. He's a very serious player, although it's still not clear if he will play and how much, but even without him, when Bayern is at home, they can beat a struggling Real away.

Hello.
Euroleague. Bayern versus Real. We're going with Gabriel as our underdog. The 7.5-point line is quite high for this player. Especially playing against Real. Real has a strong and tall lineup, especially in defense. They don't give up many points to centers. Especially against non-three-point shooters and non-mobile players like Gabriel. Of all the Euroleague centers, only Sorkin managed to rise above Real this season, who is a bit more mobile than "traditional" centers. Against Zvezda - Izundu 6 points, Motiejūnas 5 points; Partizan - Tyrique 5 points; Asvel - Vautier 2 points, Traore 4 points, Ndiaye 4 points; Oly - Milutinov 10 points; Virtus - Diarra 4 points, Diouf 4 points. Tall players simply don't score much against Real with Tavares, Garuba, and Okeke under the basket. And also, Gabriel is a poor free throw shooter, barely reaching the target with 5 out of 12 free throws. And the final argument - Voigtmann should return to the lineup, which I think both Herbert and I prefer, and he is more suitable against Real as he can shoot from a distance, forcing Real's centers to defend from under the basket.
8 points from Gabriel is just too much for me. Good luck.

Two highly productive teams in the Euroleague this season, both collecting similar points per game - PAO 88.3 and Maccabi 88.7. A fast-paced game is expected, with Maccabi bringing in Americans such as Walker and Brissett to promote quick offense, while PAO's strong offense needs no further explanation. As for defense, PAO may not be as strong, but their high-level offense is enough to match up against Virtus, who have been struggling lately. However, it's hard to say for sure - I believe Panathinaikos will cover a large part of the total points by scoring in the triple digits, but Maccabi should also have an easy time putting up points.

Here a very high coefficient is simply taken against a team that looks terrible. They have gathered a constellation, but there is no game. One plays, the others stand and watch. The game is a tragedy, even though Peru only chose talent. The cohesion of Pao is completely absent, Ataman himself doesn't know what he's doing, Nunn is doing whatever, Shorts is sitting with his arms crossed. Ataman doesn't trust Holmes, Yurtseven has his hands up. It's unclear if Nunn and Hernangomez, who have minor injuries, will play in the upcoming game, and with a double week ahead, they might even skip the first one. Meanwhile, Maccabi, even though the players are doing nonsense, there is definitely talent there, they can win a game on their own and if at the end Lonnie is on Draw no Bet, they have a chance against anyone. Against Olympiacos, who currently look better than Pao, Maccabi only lost because of their stupid decisions at the end, and they had the game in their hands. The coefficient seems too high.

Maccabi is being underestimated again. The game against PAO is still about nothing, but historically, Maccabi has been doing very well against PAO. Panathinaikos' defense currently has a lot of problems, while Maccabi has some of the best individually playing offensive players in the league. Offense will certainly not be a problem for them here, it's just a question of how their defense will be, but I still don't think Maccabi should win by double digits.

Hello.
Euroleague. Pao vs Maccabi. We're taking Maccabi with a positive handicap.
Pao is a complete mess of a team. On paper, they have a stellar lineup, but on the court, they play individually and you can't feel any input from the coach. Nunn is allowed to do everything and he takes too much on himself. That's how he scores a lot of points, but the team is heading downwards. Without Lessort, the centers are also useless. Holmes returns today, but he's not enough for Ataman to trust, and Yurtseven looks like he's not even a Euroleague player. It's unclear what Shorts is doing on that team. Korkmaz is the only one who performs solidly in his role, but after such a strong start, more was expected of him. The over on the team is a bust. There are no deeper ideas in their offense or defense. Against Virtus they looked pathetic. Of course, maybe it's just their egos, and we'll see a different picture today, but so far this season, they haven't tried too hard in any of their matches.
Maccabi is by no means a well-coordinated team, but they have enough talent. If they hold on to any opponent, we see Lonnie with a negative efficiency score and throwing bricks. The last results are quite optimistic - they beat Real and only lost by a few points to Oly. Of course, Barca's development somewhat distorts this picture, but overall the team seems to have potential. Their only loss was against Maccabi. Overall, I have a feeling that this team can do more than they've shown at the start of the season, so the handicap seems a bit too high to me.
Good luck.

The Basque game remains unchanged, played at a fast pace, only Paris team is leading in attack numbers. Both teams have injuries, but enough players capable of attacking. Both teams had under-par performances in the previous games, but there were favorable situations. Today I am eagerly awaiting that Spanish, hurricane basketball.

In short and clearly, the style of the Paris game is headless basketball.. even after the summer has passed, the leader after the leader + the coach found a way to maintain productive, fast and wide basketball. Since then, Maccabi, Virtus, Baskonia and Partizan have fallen from this basketball, against which an average of 99.3 points were scored... Efes does not show such indicators, no one shows such indicators, but in favorable circumstances they can run and score 90+ without much effort, and those favorable circumstances will be exactly against Paris, who sacrifice defense for fast offense. I see a cosmic total here.

There is no chance for Paris without the 3PT.

All key players are returning from injuries for Fenerbahce. It is clear that Fener's game is improving as the season progresses. I believe that Valencia is a favorable opponent because if they do not score 100 points, it is difficult for them to win. They are a very fast-paced team, but Šaras usually plays well against such teams, adapting to their pace and slowing it down, imposing their own conditions, and disrupting the fast rhythm of their game.

Hello.

Euroleague. Valencia against Fenerbahce. Moving with Fener's Peru.
Valencia's performance is not bad. In Euroleague, they have a record of 3 wins and 3 losses, but they defeated Milan in the previous round and played very well against Monaco before that. On top of that, an important team player - Montero - returned from injury. The defense of the team, as it looks now, is quite solid. However, in all of their games, they try to win with their offense. In many of Valencia's games, they allow the opposing team to score over 100 points. I think their weak defense is their biggest flaw, which Zalgiris will take advantage of.
Fener also has a few injuries to deal with, but after a serious injury last year, Wilbekin has returned and is playing well. He seems to still be cautious, but he is doing his job well. Baldwin also finally looks like the leader that Fener bought and wanted from the beginning. Biberovic is also adjusting well and if he continues to improve compared to the start of the season, I think he will be a serious factor. Add Colson, Tucker, and Hall, who are all playing fantastic, and the team looks quite good. Yes, their defense under the basket is weak, but Valencia is not a super team under the basket either, and everything there is decided by the defense.
Valencia doesn't have many advantages and I think after losing so many points, Fener should take the win here. Good luck.

Relaxed weekend, and here in the open field will give you the opportunity to hunt a lot. Second year, so trust it and at the beginning of the season it has already shown that it can gather huge numbers.
