Oh yea baby! Too bad I didnt hit the under too. Thought about it.....

2-2 on day -200.00 now. Much better. Even if I lose this: 8/19/2008 2:55 AM Future/Prop 200.00 1,690.00 OLYMPICS - BEIJING 2008 - HANDBALL - WOMENS MATCHUPS - FINAL ROUND - CHINA VS SOUTH KOREA - CHINA +845


Im TOTALLY HAPPY with the last two plays.... I think I might go against the USA women's team.... 42 is alot against S. Korea u think.

theboundbook- I watched Korea play and while they do play well together and they do like to chuck 3's, their % isn't the greatest, and they're the worst rebounding team in the whole field(even pool teams).

This is stylisticly and matchup wise, the worst I think we will see other than playing a team like Mali.

I think USA wins this one rather huge. I'm going to make a small parlay wager on -42 and OVER152, and place a side on OVER152.

A few stats...

USA:
ppg-98.2(1st)
rpg-40.2(4th)
turnovers-(best)
steals(best)
3pt(8th in makes, 10th in attempts, 1st in %)

Korea:
ppg-65.4(9th)
rpg-23.8(12th)
turnovers(3rd best)
steals(3rd best)
3pt(1st in makes, 2nd in attempts, 8th in %)

Korea got destroyed on the boards against Latvia, the 10th team in rebounds, and Korea hit 11 3's that game.

The USA will get atleast 10, probably 20 points off of rebounds. Korea will have to hit atleast 10-15 3's to stay within 30 points IMO.

It's going to be a close game, that spread is about dead on. I personally like Russia because they are the better all around shooting team(specificly from 3), they are a better rebounding team, and they are a very good defensive team. Spain will try to push the tempo while Russia will slow it down.

It's simply a matter of who will impose their will.

That OVER/UNDER is really tight considering their averages would put them around 131pts for the game.

Spain gave up 5 pts on 2 turnovers with 7 seconds left and fouled so they didnt cover.... Holy chit!
