Eurobasket2017 Group C: Hungary - Czech Republic

photo: Fiba.com
Again pushing the big odds here. Czech's playing smart and on the basketball IQ level they are higher than Hungary, that's obstacle here. But... If we look deep into the squad Czech lost some uncontested front-runners Vesely and Shibb. There's still Satoransky but Hruban and Kritz ain't that guys to cover the loophole. What's more Hungarians didn't have a chance to see real star Hanga who's been the chief of the movement in 2016 qualification round (6W0L in group with Macedonia and Great Britain) averaging ~20ppg with lots of defensive presents. So far cuz of injuries in limited time he's been averaging only 6.5 ppg & 3.5 eff index. What if he finaly steps up to a gives his credits next to the Henchman Vojvoda? Another thing Hungary never had chance to play with full squad in friendly's. There was either Keller, Hanga (both 2 missed a lot from start) or Vojvoda missing that is 90% of the team. Well this one is basically for the 4th spot in group C so i expect a close game and even it would be weird to see Hungary in next stage so it would to see Czech Republic, cuz it's ain't the same team from 2015. Value.

Pieno Zvaigzdes vs. Siauliai

photo: D.Luksas Probably the most high pace team Pieno Zvaigzdes meets under-offensive-performing team Siauliai with freeway thinking philosophy of basketball coach Sireika. Pieno Zvaigzdes has one modern real center from 20 century - Zukanenko (8 min per game), even coach said he's important and will give positive impact on game, but he doesn't know yet where/when to use him. Ofc he doesn't as his team is playing hell of the run&gun basketball while scoring 90 pts every game vs. weak opponents. It happend in friendly games and so during the season. Siauliai despite they improvise a lot in offence met only one high pace opponent Lietkabelis, so their totals stayed under the limit so far. Pick: FT(OT incl.)

Eurobasket2017 Group B: Israel - Lithuania

photo: Fiba.com Well if Lithuania lost accidentally to Georgia by losing control in late game the Israel had no discipline at all facing Italians. A bit pity Israel comes after 21 point lose game, being a hosts they cant make consecutive atrocious performances in 2 rounds. This is a minus on the gambling side, but technically Lithuanians can't 0/2 either. Isreal is much weaker in the paint. When Lithuania can play strech four with Kuzminskas and Motiejunas, Israel has Eliyahu who has weak body & can't shoot from the distance, Howel is 2.06 and Pnini is undersized limited veteran. If Lithuania has poor perimeter defenders on shooting guards and gonna have much trouble against Belineli & CO, Omri Casspi is the pure slowfootworking food to feed the Lion defence anchor Maciulis. Mekel can't shoot 3pt either and no matter Isreal will try to compensate their cons on playing fast I already did too much scouting in 5 mins, so I can't see any other scenario than i...
