FIBA

International Hoops


Brazil -4.5 vs Serbia (OVER 149.5)

Both these teams can score, and despite the fact that Serbia is a nice dog in this game, Brazil has seemingly gotten better as the tourney goes on. Not only that, but Brazil has been on of the more efficient, patient offense throughout this tournament. Expect an 84-78 victory out of the Brazilians as they become the most popular team in their own country. Neymar has been a candidate for sixth man of the tourney thus far, despite playing 0 minutes. Good shit Neymar.

Spain -16 vs France (OVER 147.5)
Spain has been ROLLIN' lately. The Gasol brothers are in sync, and the rest of the El Spanish Team Numero Uno has pundits and media types everywhere believing the US basketball dynasty might be over (again). I don't believe all that hype, but I do believe France has been one of the most underperforming teams in this tournament. I expect 90 out of the Spanish as the French pick up some scraps to take the over. This will not be a repeat of game 1 between these two teams as the Spanish are a little more cohesive and can taste the title game with the US. The only reason to watch this is Ricky Rubio's nasty ass passing.
