Real Madrid vs Lietuvos Rytas Predicted score: 74-65 The crowning moment of the ULEB Cup season is here! Lietuvos Rytas and Real Madrid will face each other in the title game in the Spiroudome on Tuesday, in an exciting showdown that will decide which of them lifts the trophy and advances to the 2007-08 Euroleague. Both teams arrive to Charleroi, Belgium for their second title games. Madrid lost the 2004 ULEB Cup final against Hapoel Migdal Jerusalem while L.Rytas won the competition in 2005 and could become the first team to win a second ULEB Cup trophy. As most of experienced bettors know final is not a best game to bet on, but it's hard to skip such games without doing a bet especially if you have it in your TV-schedule. So please consider this pick as a pick for fun and not for money earning. Honestly speaking I don't see any seriuos mistakes in this line from bookies side, but I have a feeling that this game would not be high scoring. If we will look into game from statistical point of view this line looks wrong because both teams average total is 150.5 points per game, but it's a final where two defensive style opponents meeting each other and 146.5 points line looks good, but for me it's could be even lower. Rytas have some problems in offense during last few weeks because they don't have such players like Bullock in Madrid who can score points when other team members can't do it. Yes, Rytas have Rush but Real Madrid defense will not forget about him and would allow him to shoot 3-pointers from the corner... Rytas playing collective basketball offense which is relying on 3-points shots but currently team snipers are not hot like they was last season in Euroleague. I expect Real to use hard defense on 3 point line. Both team will play low-tempo game with hard work in defense. I don't know who will this game, sure Real have much better roster but have no pressure and could give us a surprise. Anyway, I think that this game final score will be around 136-142 points.
