Anadolu Efes - Bayern Munich

Disappointment with Efes this season, Kokoskov doesn't know what he's doing, the dismissal is already prepared and I think this will be the last straw. Playing the young players unconsciously. Larkin plays the biggest minutes of his career, even though he's 33 years old. Overall, there's almost no rotation, no centers. The second game in a double week will be even harder than the first, even though they played tragically in the first game. Dinwiddie will cause trouble for Bayern, I think the odds are too high here, I would evaluate the game as more of a 50/50, Efes is definitely not the favorite here.

Hello. Euroleague. Efes against Bayern. Let's go with Dinwiddie 10.5 points over. He looks better and better in Herbert's schemes. He gains confidence from the coach, makes over shots and plays over time. Naturally, he needed to adjust to the Euroleague, but he is clearly the most talented Bayern player. He clashed with Barca for 17 points already and if he hit that last penalty, we would have a chance to extend the match. But it is what it is. Today's opponent is Efes, who looks good on paper, but otherwise plays complete chaos. The defense doesn't work at all and a lot of points are conceded against defenders. I will name a few defender performances against the Efes team: Virtus - Edwards 21pts, Morgan 13pts; Milan - Ellis 14pts, Guduric 13pts, Bolmaro 10pts; Baskonia - Spagnolo 19pts; Paris - Hifi and Herrera with 17pts each, Robinson 13pts. It is obvious that defenders create a lot of shots against Efes. In a strong rotation, Dinwiddie also doesn't have much competition (both Baldwin and Rathan-Mayes don't look good), so I think he will play again for over 20 minutes. A big and physical defender can definitely score points here and under the basket when there are no centers in Efes' rotation. I think the handicap is really low and worth a try. Good luck.

The teams capable of playing a fast and productive basketball. Although the results are not always big, the second week's matches may expect a more versatile game of basketball. Both teams are in doubt after losses, but the match between Efes and Virtus allows for another similar offensive spectacle, especially when playing at home and the game will be controlled by the Turkish team.
