Tau CeramicaVS. FC Barcelona

Tau Ceramica vs. Barcelona

3rd game of ACB League final could be a good opportunity for medium stake. As I expected total's line stayed on 154.5 mark after 2 games in Barcelona went under this total. But I would like to notice that both games were not low tempo. Defense was a factor for sure but individual performance of Lakovic and Acker was not a factor in this series. However, Barcelona was looking much better in 2nd game after very low quality match in Game 1 when they lost 64:75. In Game 2 Barcelona scored 74 points but Lakovic and Acker were still out of this game with 11 points in total. But as team Barcelona was better and today I expect to see even better game level from Barcelona because they don't have any pressure (because their playoffs goal was to qualify into EL, while championship title hope is only a miracle with 0-2 and 2 games in Vittoria in the schedule).

Asvel - Nancy
Both teams prefer to play in up-tempo style and I hardly see this game going to low score on Asvel home court where home teams scores 90 pts in average. In their first game teams did more than 180 posessions and nothing should be changed today because offense is the only gun how Asvel can beat Nancy.

 Montepaschi Siena vs. Lottomatica Roma

151.5 total line looks low for me here. Both teams knows each other very well. With same coaches and rosters they played in last year Italian Legabasket league final and already played 2 times this season. So far in 7 of 8 played games they scored 150 and more points. Montepaschi home average is 92.5 and they usually find way to score 83-85 points at least so I would set 82.5-83 for home side here. On other side bookmakers set Roma's total on 70 points. Roma scored more than 70 points in all games against Montepaschi except one, also they have deep roster with nice 3-point shooting ability and even taking into consideration Montepaschi defensive skills I think that Roma have good chance to finish this game in 68-75 points range.

FC Barcelona vs Joventud

Public still believes in Joventud magic because of their latest results in Europe and local competitions. I agree that Joventud did a big step this year but now their journey will end. It's not easy to be in the top form during whole season even for such deep roster as Joventud have. They were good whole season long and they already completed all their goals. They won ULEB cup, King's Cup and they qualified into Euroleague 2008/2009 as winner of Uleb Cup. But main reason why I don't believe in them today is because they can't win games on hot arenas. Sounds crazy? Let's take closer look:
