Spain - Angola
These teams already played this season in Spain and Spain won 97-73. Now they meet each other again. Both teams showed good defence in Japan but that was only because of poor opponents offense. Tomorrow it will be another game. Angola have size problem and they will be forced to run as fast as they can to score easy points or shoot 3 pointers. At this moment Angola is one of the best 3pt shooters on this tournament and this team is 70+ points team because they scored 70+ points in all their games this summer. Spain also likes up-tempo basketball but with Angola they will have size under basket because Angola don't have high centers. They are athletic with good jump but it would not help against strong spanish front-court. So I expect Spain to accept fast tempo and also they have to score a lot of easy points from paint. In their first game 3 quarters were over 40.5 while 4th one was 39 points. I think that final result should be similar as their last game result. Predicted score: Spain 95 - Angola 76 Pick: OVER 162

China - Senegal
Senegal have only gun in offense. It's offensive rebounding and layups. Tomorrow they will have tough time as well as they had today with Italy. Their right total should be not more than 65 points. Look at their preparations results to understand why I think so: Senegal France 58-95
Senegal China 53-57
Senegal Lithuania75-74
Senegal Russia 44 66
Senegal Lithuania 51 96
Senegal Israel 68 80
Senegal Japan 60 62 Yes, they managed to score 75+ points in first games against Slovenia and Puerto Rico, but Puerto Rico don't know what the word "defence" means, and slovenians were not motivated because they +26 points advantage. So I expect that Senegal will hardly match 62 points mark, while China should be able to score about 75-80 points. Predicted score: China 76 - 58 Senegal Pick: Senegal UNDER 75.5
