Phoenix Hagen -  Deutsche Bank Skyliners

Hagen is fastest team in the league. They still can't compete with other teams due the poor defense and this should be a matter tonight too. DBS is much better on offensive end this year and can score points with no problems if opponents does not defend well. I see this game going into 156-165 points range with some possibilities of 165-170 points game. 2 months ago they played in Hagen friendly and DBS won 99:71. Tonight I expect something similar but with lower total: 76:83 for Skyliners.

Pick: Over 152.5

Walter Tigers Tubingen - EnBW Ludwigsburg

Derby where defense will matter. Ludwigsburg defends under 70 points usually while Tubingen has troubles in scoring points. I think that 75-78 points line is higher than it should for 2-3 points for each total. Personally I would set here 71.5-75 line with more chances to win for away side which has better balance in the roster and better players. Also fans from both towns are expected on this game so no real home advantage for Tubingen.

Pick: Under 153.5
