Frankfurt Skyliners vs. Telekom Baskets Bonn
Bonn will miss Strasser and Bowler in this match and according to german basketball forums these missings are very important for Bonn. Also I don't think that with so many changes in the roster and questionable form in preseason games (I mean losses to outsider Giessen and young Koln) it will be very hard for Bonn to repeat last season win in 5th semifinal series - it was 1st Bonn win in Frankfurt since 2004.
Bonn has an woeful record in Frankfurt with 2 wins and 10 losses and I hardly seem them winning this game. Skyliners at this moment looks much better with preseason wins against Banvit, Antalya, few PRO A clubs and saved key players with good transfer done this summer. Also home side will try to revenge for semifinal and home factor is also important here.
I would set at least -5.5 handicap here for Skyliners as it was set in playoff series in May but now this handicap could be even higher because Skyliners on the paper and in my head looks more solid and better prepared team. I expect 6-10 points win for home side. Pick: Frankfurt to win @ 1.63 Bwin
