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).

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:

Tau Ceramica vs. Pamesa Valencia
Tau will be without Planinic and Rakocevic (was training but still highly doubtful), Jasaitis plays with injury, Mickael and Splitter had some injury problems too but will play. Sure Tau have deep bench but without Planinic and Rakocevic I can't expect best offensive game from them. They are currently on 4 games losing streak and maybe their best from came to them a little bit early than they wanted... Let's see today.

 UnicajaVS Girona

Unicaja vs. Girona

For Girona it is 4th game in 6 days with flight from Italy to Spain on Monday. I doubt that Girona will be able to fight against Unicaja today because of tireness and "not so good form" as ULEB Cup showed. San Emeterio after surgery looks bad, game is too predictable and depends on M.Gasol who will meet some difficulties under basket today because there Unicaja have 4 anwsers to his problem: Ndong, Haislip, Santiago and Gabriel.

Bilbao vs. Tau Ceramica

1) Bilbao overestimated here because of strong first season half when they played against weak opponents at home (10-1 at home right now) and were in better conditions than leaders against whom they won. Now everything is different. Tau is top team in its best conditions right now. Bilbao form now 4-6 while Tau 8-2
