god, the quarter couldn't have been started any worse...neither team hitting anything.

 

[Patrick_Bateman]

man. I did not know the game started. wow down 13 already. i shall remain silent for a few

 

[Bookieman]

lots of people on the Under 148 in china v greece, having in memory china's last game where they scored 50's (poor shooting). i am liking the over. no pressure on either tem here as they both qualifed. no motivation means no defense. chinese may play hard because of home adv.

whoever bet on iran should just stop watching this butt rape.:smoking:

I would say that Greece is the most vulnerable but I think they will show up to play in order to avoid being the 4th seed.

I think you've got this backward. I think the likelihood is that Greece doesn't show up so that they can be the 4th seed and thus avoid having to play Argentina. They'd much rather face Lithuania. I think there is incentive for them to dump this game. Will they do that? I have no idea.

that is what I was thinkin cut

tHAT was the same reason I thought about taking the under, however I laid off.

I like your move of laying off. no one knows who is going to play hard or rest players (like the Last week of NFL regular season). also, i think Bookies finally got the trick and are setting the lines pretty good.

i think today is the best day to stay away from all the games.

i AGREE with you too, however they are not giving certian favorites enough respect. Just like yesterday I would be happy going 3-3 or 4-2 hitting at least my top play.

Actually I think you guys kinda got the right idea, but these teams aren't looking at the first matchup, they're looking at the second, because whoever ends up in 3rd from group b, which is china/Greece, has to play US in the second round, and NOBODY wants to have to play us if they can avoid it. Especially since China is the home team, they're going to definitely want to STAY OUT of the same seeding as US, which is why I think Greece is going to cover this game by DD. But of course Greece doesn't want to play us, but we'll see, anyways, Greece is easily the better team...

 

[GoSteelers248]

so you are saying both teams dont want to win the game since they don't want to face US?? so which mean under is play here?

 

[BUCSnotYUCKS]

I am playing the UNDER.

 

[OTK]

These two teams have no reason to look ahead that far. Although I think Greece is the second best team, neither them or China are guaranteed to win their QF match, so they shouldn't be worrying about the semis yet.

Personally, I'm on China +7.5 for this game and lean towards the over.
