Hi everyone,

Me (mc) and my friend (judas) will run this betting blog. Our main field is NBA and since, it is starting, we thought to give ourselves a chance about it. We promise you long and broad previews and we trust ourselves about to stay in green in NBA betting. Also, we will give picks from our local sport match ups and some major leagues from Europe.

Cheers.

Macedonian guard Ilievski is returning to the city, that he had very successful years.

Olimpija is nothing special and showed that they will struggle this season at Euroleague, when they were losing against Cibona with 16 points margin. They do not have a productive player inside, also the outside players are easily defendable players who has shooting, as their only scoring option. Their only inside option Jurkovic is a guy can be useful in a well-developed team, by finding some extra scores. But, he is far away from to be a first scoring option, at Euroleague level.

On the other hand, Roma leading by coach Repesa has exactly needed weapons to win at Ljubliana. Hawkins and Bodiroga will be on the court and Olimpia does not have adequate players to defend both of them at the same time. Also, the 7 footers of Roma are far stronger than Olimpia's units. Garri will help Moiso with his shooting ability and Greek fellas will bring some defensive performances onto the weak Olimpija squad.

Additionally, Arslan is injured and this situation will coerce the only remaining guard Rannikko very much.

To sum up, Lottomatica (can become underdogs, at succeeding stages) is stronger at every position than Olimpija and at better form. So, I think that they can beat this handicap.

Galatasaray is coming from nice performances in local league, they kept creating goal chances and there is a clear decreasment at the number of positions, they received from opponents. There is no serious injuries.

On the other hand, PSV is hot too. They are scoring a lot of goals in last matches in local league. But, at the game played in Istanbul, Galatasaray was the better side at the majority of the game. They kept real pressure on PSV and gave no real chances to score. But, after the accidental goal received from Mondragon, they lost concentration, few supporters jumped into the venue and it destroyed remaining hopes about the game. Mondragon is at the top of his form, after that accidental goal, also Tomas got rid off from his weakness.

Draw is perfectly fit for PSV and they know that they will find some positions from counter attacks, so actually they do not need to play like they played in their local games.

I do not think seriously that Galatasaray can win this game, but I'm very comfortable with keeping my money safe, at one margin lost.
