FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019

It seems to be that the USA vs Japan match is the easiest to predict, for sure the USA will dominate Japan and notably only Japan is playing today from Asian country.

Yeah, that is and someone that I've replied a while ago said that this fight is interesting because the USA struggled a bit with Turkey.

But Japan's gameplay is still different in basketball although I think we'll still see a good match for these teams.

A good match for me is a close fight, but I don't expect this game will end up close because the line itself says the opposite.
In my sportsbook now, Japan is +29.5 and therefore beating the US is a big upset, Asian teams are really an underdog in this tournament, I think only China can really compete well among the Asian teams although they only won once in their group.

By the way, I'd appreciate if there's a member from here who can share which TV stations these games are televised.
I availed for an IPTV thinking I could see these games but I haven't find the right channel yet.

Tomorrow will be a big day with some very decisive matches.

My country Greece is facing New Zealand and the winner will advance to the next round while the looser will have to say good bye China! I am optimistic that we will make it, hoping we have learned from our mistakes against Brazil. My bet is Greece -13.5 pts.

I also see the Greece team progressing to the next round of this year tournament because the team is in good form and their performances in the year FIBA cup is not bad either which was the same thing that makes them up ranking on the world FIBA rank listing.

I am glad you think we will progress but yesterdays performance wasnt good at all mate...

Yeah that's true, but I think that yesterday performance greece will review and analysts the game play to make the team play well.

They aren't still out, they only loss once and they can still come back, it's just that this team has been hype because they have an NBA MVP but as a team, they are not really as good as the Serbians who beat Italy yesterday. BTW, just want to let you know that I'm not rooting for this team, being an MVP is just a name if he can't prove it in this big stage again.

You're absolutely right about the Greece not really good as the Serbian but if you check the team ranking you shouldn't be surprise about the Serbian performance because they are actually rated 4th in the world base on the team previous capacity.

I'm trying to be optimistic and positive about the performance of both team here.

Although it is very likely that this match has been decided already. As said, this will be a good match and we'll see plays that we are expecting to see to put up a good one.

Teams that compose group J already complete, just curious on how is the format here.

Do they play round robin and each team play 3 times?

It's +27.5 for Japan here in my sportsbook right now. This is the highest handicap given to a team in today's matches. This means that the USA vs. Japan match is the most lop-sided game we have for today. This is not going to be a close fight. This is actually a giveaway game for the USA. At least as far as the odds right now is concerned. But we could be surprised by the actual game, just like how Iran surprised us with their game against Spain yesterday.

This world cup till now has been full of surprises. There were some really close matches (especially the United States vs Turkey match), and quite a few upsets (such as the win by Brazil against Greece). Those who made bets in favor of the smaller teams got good returns. Anyway, here is my prediction for today's matches:

1. Canada vs Senegal: Canada
2. Brazil vs Montenegro: Brazil
3. Turkey vs CzR: Turkey
4. Germany vs Jordan: Germany
5. Lithuania vs Australia: Lithuania
6. Greece vs New Zealand: New Zealand
7. USA vs Japan: USA
8. Dominican Rep vs France: France

IMO, for today, the chance of upset is from the NZ vs Greece match. If that happens, then Greece will be out of the world cup.

Statistically, yes the match between USA vs Japan surely will consider as a bonus round for USA to the point that sports bookies give that kind of handicap line. Might be a trap for some bettors out there but since some upsets happened recently, chances that Japan can cover it is possible. But for me, I will refrain from putting money here.

Anyway, here is my prediction for today's matches:

1. Canada vs Senegal: Canada
2. Brazil vs Montenegro: Brazil
3. Turkey vs CzR: Turkey
4. Germany vs Jordan: Germany
5. Lithuania vs Australia: Lithuania
6. Greece vs New Zealand: New Zealand
7. USA vs Japan: USA
8. Dominican Rep vs France: France

Majority of these matches are quite decided already so predicting it might be easy.

We should stay away at Moneyline for an obvious reason unless gamblers are really eager. Consider picking Handicap instead.

Indeed. I highly doubt Japan can do anything to beat USA. Aside from the race advantage which is obviously given, the numbers between them have a significant gap. Though Japan's FG percentage was higher than USA by 5%, I think it wssn't enough because their points came only from few lead by Hachimura compared to a well balanced USA where point contributions are scattered. While in the contrary, USA got higher point average than Japan which prove us that they are a real scoring machine. I'm not concluding they will lose to their upcoming match but they should make an extra effort in order to win like what Brazil did to an overrated Greece . (The References)

The betting odds does not always say the outcome of the game, who knows, maybe Japan will be able to give Japan a challenge and might come up with an upset which is unlikely, but losing in single digit is still possible.

Just like Greece, USA is also hype because they are compose of NBA players, so sometimes that line for them is just overvalued.
But for me, I'm not betting on this game, I'll just watch it because it's hard to predict based on the line provided.

Canada vs Senegal just started - I am expecting an Under match (even though most of the matches in this WC went over so far), so my money is on under 158.5 pts. GL to everyone betting!

I will make my bet on the total score of this match after the first half is done. I've already made a bet on Senegal +10.5. They had a good start although Canada made an even better second quarter. A 20-6 run for Canada so far in the second quarter made them ahead. I hope Senegal will keep the fight close.

GL to you bro - the under i looking very good so far, I hope they will keep the low rhythm.

I was too late to catch the 158.5. That must be an easier win. I was only able to bet on 145.5. Kind of risky, I hope I made the right decision. Three quarters are almost through and the total score is not yet 100.

Any tips on other matches? Montenegro is trying to give Brazil a hell of a fight.

My bet there was on the OVER and I expect high scoring in the 2. half as well. Also, Turkey started bad but they should win vs CZE, so if you can find nice odds, take em!

I took the 1.60 odds for Turkey (-3.5). This looks fair enough for me. Czech Republic is keeping a very little lead. It could easily change hands.

Anyway, good luck to both of us. I hope we are going to make some nice money here.

Even if +27.5 for Japan, I will still not bet for that. They are up against the defending champ and they are not even near the top10 teams in the world so it obvious that team USA will dominate the match.

Well, you always have an opportunity to bet on the other side, USA at -27.5 looks sweet especially if they can dominate Japan.
In this tournament so far, we've seen a lot of lopsided game, so in case people's prediction are right that USA will easily dominate Japan, USA could win more than 30 points at least.

[Captain Corporate]

 I can't believe we lost to Czechia , we literally were on the verge of winning against USA and would have if we didn't missed 4 free throws in a row, and now we are eleminated.
