Never saw a line on Iran/China. Wanted to play Iran and the under.

South American women
Argentina/Chile
Saturday August 3, 2013
pick: Chile +24.5

Argentina/Brazil meet in the final every year. Chile has a decent team and only lost to Brazil 80-63. I saw a line a bet365 and 5 Dimes. Argentina will win but I think the underdogs have a good shot at staying within 20. GL!

Easy winner as it ends 68-58. Chile only lost by 10.

5 Dimes has Iran -160, China +200 and Korea +1000.
Bet365 also has it.

Malaysia vs. Thailand
Asia BB Championships
6am eastern Monday
over 136

These two teams are bad. Very small and bad. Malaysia played in a tough gruop with Iran, Korea and China. They scored 25, 22 and 58 points in their games. The games averaged 138 points as the totals reached 140, 135 and 138. Now they get to play a small team that won't play decent defense.

Thailand's three games made it to 148, 154 and 148 points for an average of 150. They lost all three and scored in the 60's. Malaysia has Gan, Ooi and Kaek (scored 25 vs. Korea) to score points. They had low scoring quarters of 2, 2, 3 and 3 in the games with Iran and China. They were just 9/47 FG's with Iran.

Back in 2011, Malaysia and Uzbekistan played a 80-75 (155) game in the same tournament. It does scare me that Thailand has had some low scores in other games but there will be opportunities to score and get over 136. GL!

over 136

Lost this play as it ends 71-56. Too many missed layups.

The Philippines are the home team and could get hot with the crowd support. Chinese Teipei is playing well. Korea did beat China and only lost to Iran by 12 and China could still surprise.

Iran vs. Bahrain
12:45am Wednesday
pick Bahrain +46.5

In FIBA Asia action Iran played yesterday and smashed India. They play Bahrain late tonight and then go against Kazakhstan the following day. Iran will win big but I think Bahrain can stay within 40 led by Ismaeel, Kuwaid, Giles, Malabes and Ebrahim. Hopefully, we see a 93-53 final score.

Lines available at Pinnacle, 5 Dimes and bet365.

1* Bahrain +46.5

the philippines beat japan. and i remember yi jian lin didnt play with china in the last game (i think). chinese taipei is great with 3s. iran's competitor will still be unknown. still thinking who to bet on the plus side.

Congrats. Any more for the morning? Thought that game was on Wednesday but missed this one.

 

[luckiestgambler]

Easy winner as it ends 75-56.

close call for the final score. i think i'll follow your odds and try to bet some on those. though, may be not on the iran matches since we all know who will there.

India vs. Korea
Wednesday
pick: India +29.5

Korea is play in the Q-Finals in a few days. This is the last game of the day. Korea could beat India badly but I hope to see some players rested as they only beat Malaysia 80-58 and 8 players played 20 minutes. So far in the last round we have seen games end with 121, 139, 122, 138 and 154. Teams are tired after so many games so the score shouldn't be very high which will make it easier for India + points. I have seen +28, +29 and +29.5. GL.....

 

[Dr.T]

In the Q-Finals on Friday:

Philippines vs. Kazakhstan
Iran vs. Jordan
Chinese Taipei vs. China
Korea vs. Qatar

I am leaning China. They have injuires and weak PG play but Chinese Taipei (Taiwan) is a small island off the coast of China and will struggle psychologically to beat their big brothers unless they play well. Lines should be out in the next day.

Lost this pick as Korea wins easily 95-54.

Chinese Taipei vs. China
9:45am eastern Friday
pick: China -7.5

CT only lost one game and that was their last one vs. Qatar. China will play good defense and not allow fast breaks, and guard the 3's. CT may struggle with the mental barrier of beating the mainland China team as they usually do. The Q-Finals are the knockout round. Yi Jianling played some recent games after an injury. China will be able to score inside. CT needs Quincy Davis to have a great game. China wins by 13.
