After the absence of several days due to obligations and now that the banners have returned (so we have to send the world to the bucket, yes we have read it too!), It's time to get back to the bet somewhat but not to the extent that it will I wanted. The text below will probably be less than usual due to lack of time, but that does not mean I do not "believe" in the choice I'm betting.
5 the Euroleague 16 racing season and the tonight match is of great importance for 2 teams as it will judge very early if any of 2 has greatly assured her presence in 4 and her participation in the quarter-finals. Real has 4 wins in an equal number of matches but without impressing, winning 2 German teams away from home, like Malaga while against Zalgiris in Madrid managed to steal the victory in the end with a tripod in its last attack! I will disagree with the odds that have such a strong favorite for victory, but I think even more bet is another bet that seems to be more probable as we will see below.
Panathinaikos has so far suffered a defeat from Efes in Turkey, having won Zalgiris and Malaga very hard inside and somewhat more comfortable Alba in Berlin. Winning tonight makes a big step in qualifying for 8 as it will essentially need a win over Bamberg in Germany and CSKA in the OAKA's closed 2 home-wins with the German teams to qualify.
Pedoulakis, although he is not my favorite as a coach to any team, has been focusing on the one who previously distinguished him as a player. In defense, which is due to - the lies - superior to the anticipated course of Panathinaikos in Europe this year. His defense gave victory in the previous phase against Real and in the same way he will try to hit it in today's match, having after a long time available to Diamantidis that is decisive and to impose - if Uckic allows it - the an appropriate pace in the attack but also to strengthen regional defense.
After the unexpected victory of Malaga in Moscow - which took place as long as these lines were written - things are complicated enough in the group and today's match gets even more value so I expect contracted attacks, anxiety, dead intervals by both opponents and Real will face problems both under the basket and away. After all, only against Bamberg he scored and scored over 80 points and very hardly will be able to do something like this tonight.
