Spanish basketball cup starts this Thursday in Malaga. This is probably the best tournament before Final Four. Lot of NBA scooters go to watch best players in Europe. 8 teams in 4 days will fight to get the title. Bookies seem the offer odds looking the classification and thinking most money will go on favourites. I think maybe in long run quality should be very important but in a single game It s sometimes hard to show that you are better than the opposite. This competition will be in Malaga so home advantage will be only with Unicaja, about others would mean neutral side.

I like some games but I want to be focused in this one. Real Madrid is playing excellent and with amazing % in shoots this season. They didn’t have too many problems in last games especially at home. Anyway Canarias is always a hard team to beat. Hard defence, strong rebound, not bad bench and high spirit team. They did 2 bad selections with Americans this summer but since they joined Vroman and Hunter, they are playing each time better. Maybe his worse face is in away games when they sometimes seem lost in games. Norris and Mario Fernandez are good double play markers. Norris is playing worse than last season, without scoring many points but he has quality and he defence very hard others play markers along the entire match. Also Fernandez is young and talent player. Probably not many people know him because he isn’t playing a big team, but he has quality to be a bench player in a top European team. Very hard to defend him, tall and fast in lay ups. Moran, Guerra, Hunter and maybe Sergio Fernandez are a not bad line. Guerra has lot of quality but he seems irregular this season. Moran is a hard worker, gives rebound, defence and each year more points. He is improving his 3 points shoots lately. Hunter is a bit strange American, normally American just think to score but this one thinks first in the team and then in his points. Centers are another not weak line. David, Vroman, Savane and Valdo, Savane is a very good center but this season seems a bit irregular, he had some injuries this season but in last games he seems to be fit to reach the cup in his best level. He should be very important to defend Reyes. He also should help in rebound and helping his partners in defence. David doesn’t have too much to say, maybe a bit old but he has quality to continue playing in TAU. He gives the experience to the team. Vroman is the new sing up from Canarias, he started amazing well his games in Spain scoring points easily and getting high valued points. Baldo is nothing special, but he loves to fight on the court. Probably will try to make nervous Reyes to get him outside the match. He is like Materazzi specialist provocateur.

I know that my bet is risky because if Real has 5 excellent minutes match should be end. But I hope they don’t have 60% in 3 points. Also the pressure on the first game should be noticed. Canarias coach will try a strong defence over Bullock and Reyes, and if he gets it. Match would be more equal than odds means.
