 Tau Ceramica vs DKV Joventut
Here we are. The Final. The expected final (at least for me it was expected). What to expect from this game? Will Tau win King's cup or Joventud will get their first title in club new history?

Honestly speaking I feel that Joventud have talent and power surprise public in Vittoria. Joventud leaders Barton-Rudy-Mallett(+Rubio) have BIG potential but they still lack winning mentality and tactical variousness in their game. Their bench is long, their power forwards and centers are very similar to TAU big players and they match up perfectly with them. Guards match up well against Prigioni - Planinic - Rakocevic - Vidal on both sides of the floor. Maybe Planinic is a bit too strong physically for Mallet and Rubio and here is first advantage of Tau but this is only place where Tau have slight advantage in rosters matchups. But there are some another small details which are talking into Tau favor.

 Tau Ceramica vs Bilbao Basket

Money line and asian handicap markets have no value in my eyes because Bilbao looks really nice and they don't fear anyone in this league. Tau is a home team + public loves them so nothing strange that bookies set lines according to public demand. But also we should not forget that this is a local derby in semifinal so some kind of suprises are possible here too especially from Bilbao. But also we know what power is Tau at home and what is happening with their opponents when Rakokokocevic and Co is on fire so it's hard to back Bilbao too.
 
But what I like in this game is over/under line. Bookies relies on their lines history to set lines usually. Here we have again 151.5-152.5 pts line as it was in the first match which ended 78-80 Bilbao win. That game ended with 158 points total and something similar I expect to see today. So here are the reasons:

 We have another 2 quarterfinals of Copa Del Rey on Friday but both of them are quite difficult for betting purposes. In general I recommend you to avoid betting on these matches or wait for live-betting where some profit can be made especially for those who have accounts at betting exchange.
 
DKV Joventut vs Pamesa Valencia
DKV Joventut according to polls organized on this site is a favorite to win this Cup together with TAU and honestly speaking I voted for them too. But before they should get through uncomfortable opponent Pamesa.

TAU Ceramica - Unicaja

Unicaja's coach Scariolo about upcoming game:

"We are aware of the difficulty of the task and the opportunity to play a good game away from home against a team of a very high level. We begin in earnest to deny us the feeling that we can not compete against Tau after recent results before them. We must stay focused on the tasks that have to run without the straw, the public or the effort of the rival distract us.  If we can get all this and are entering the last quarter matched, it will have real and concrete options to win the match, "explained the technician.
