NRG NA team, they always play a slightly different CS game, they react slower to teams, so I think karrigan should sort them out with his tactics, especially with having twist as a player by their side again, FaZe seems to have recovered and with karrigan weaving in twist's tactics.
I don't think they lack experience, they're not that hopeless. Maybe they're a bit behind newer teams, but at the moment, LYN looks much worse. The old roster and no results at all, while NiP continues to move on with their old coach and it seems like only the in-game leader will change.
The situation is very similar to the Raptors-Cavs game. The Pacers have been plagued by injuries and recently allowed opponents to dominate the paint. Turner has shown significant improvement this season and has been consistently putting up good numbers. This is a great opportunity to extend our dominance this season, both in scoring and rebounds.
After Giannis Antetokounmpo's injury, Bobby Portis's role on the team has changed. He plays more minutes, takes more shots, and has an excellent shooting percentage. In the last two games without Giannis, he made this over shot. In the previous game against a strong Pistons team, he made 4 out of 5 3-point shots and scored 19 points. Last season, when Antetokounmpo was injured, Portis averaged 22 points. The Bucks will want to break their losing streak at home and prove that they can win without Giannis. Bobby Portis will play a crucial role in this. But I think the Blazers are a favorable team for the over.
Two solid attacking teams meet, Žalgiris 6th in terms of average points earned in the EuroLeague with 87.5, and Baskai 7th with 87.1 points per game. The match should be high scoring, as this season Žalgiris plays a offense-oriented basketball and Baskai are also capable of playing at a fast pace with high points, even away from home. A total of 170 points might be scored, and there could even be an over in this game.
The actual strength is heavily depleted and even though they have more than one serious basketball player, their team looks weak even at home. Now they are talking about going away and currently they are worse than Euroleague teams. The real strength lies in their offense, but when it comes to playing against the most productive team in the league, they are unable to keep up in offense. Hapeol looks very good and strong and they must take advantage of the Real team's fluctuations and weaknesses.
Yesterday, with RJ Barrett's injury and leaving the game, Ja'Kobe Walter took advantage of the opportunity and played a great game both defensively and offensively, scoring 16 points in 19 minutes. Although the start of the season wasn't the best for him, which is normal for a team like the Raptors where talent is not lacking, his points and minutes are gradually increasing.
With RJ Barrett out and after playing a great game yesterday, he has the chance to show what he is capable of.
Of course, there are tough opponents ahead, but a 6.5 point over/under is not too high.
