Zalgiris survives and moves series to Vilnius. It was again close game, Zalgiris were leading most of time and it looked that Rytas needs some little run like 5:0 to take initiative, what didn't happened.
I already written of Efes, but Larkin with buzzer-beater says that it's not over yet. Seems that we still can expect interesting things there. Similar like in Greece where Panathinaikos makes series 2:1.
What is a bit unexpect is Alba win vs Bayern away, odds for Alba was something like 5.00. 1:1 now.
And Real in comfortable way goving towards another ACB title, 2:0 already.
Lithuania is hosting Lebanon tonight which is an interesting matchup. I tried to read some stuff about the Lithuania team that is doing a training camp at the moment and it seems they are still missing all of the big names.
The best players of course are still active in the Lithuanian finals and the NBA players I guess also still rest.
Replying a bit too late, but it's not real Lithuanian team, it's reserve team with some young players. If 1 or 2 players from this squad will get into main team, it will be surprise. They will play 2 more games with Lebanon, while main team will begin training camp next week.
I also watched the Kaunas vs Rytas game for a while.
Kaunas had a comfortable lead all game lonng pretty much. Not a big surprise they didn't wave the white flag in defeat. I expect the next game to be really close and maybe we will see a game 5, wouldn't be too much of a surprise.
About the Lithuania game, yeah I knew that. Thank god I didn't bet it, even after the handicap went up after I posted, to +23,5. Short time later my bookie took off the handicap and only offered moneyline, so I didn't get a chance to play it anyway.
Lebanon, even though Lithuania just competed with a young squad, had no chance and lost by like 30 points. Dodged a bullet there.
