CSKA defense is not so effective as it was under Messina but because of low pace they still can defend well. But now CSKA also showing good offensive game where 5-6 players can score 10+ points at once.

I expect CSKA to offer too much tactical battle for Prokom american players who can only run, shoot and rebound. If something of this 3 aspects will be controlled by smart CSKA game - CSKA will get its 3rd victory in this group.

Olympiacos - Cibona

Easy win for Greek team. Cibona is not motivated now and they never were competetitive in Greece. Olympiacos should continue its winning series with comfortbaly double digit victory.

Unicaja - Zalgiris

R.Butautas was fired on Monday from Zalgiris head coach post but his replacement D.Maskoliunas is from the same sope opera. Another ex-player who have worked as coach assistant. Let's see what Maskoliunas is worth as a first coach but I don't expect that something will be changed. Zalgiris spent almost a day in trip to Malaga and had only one training to prepare for this game.

This game is decisive for Unicaja which needs a victory to stay in the playoff battle in group G. They are very motivated and they should be able to control this game from start till the end because Zalgiris is in bad shape currently and has nothing to offer either on defense or offense.

I expect easy Unicaja win by 12-16 points with possible total covering. The best choice as for is Unicaja to score over 82 points but if you can't bet on this you can try over 151.5 or Unicaja -11.5. I expect Unicaja to score in 82-91 points range and Zalgiris in 65-74 points range so my line here (-17/156).

Pick: Unicaja (-11.5), Over 151 or Unicaja over 82
