Oradea - Khimik
-> Khimik +7 q.1.862 8/10 pinni
-> ML q3.41 2/10 pinni
Some words from older previews about both teams :
"CSM Oradea is one of the strongest teams in romania but you cant compare their league to Rishons league.
Oradea started 3-2 into their league.
90-86 (L) vs Steaua
97-40 (W) vs Mare
74-70 (L) vs Sibiu
81-73 (W) vs Pitesti
70-76 (W) vs Targu
In Championsleague they lost 56-69 at home vs Pinar. (30-40 at halftime for Pinar)
With Zeno, Barnette, Pasalic and Mirkovic they got some decent players. Barnette and Zeno are just mediocre americans.
I chose the halftime spread because i expect Rishon to start explosive and they got a very strong starting5 which should be 2 levels ahead Oradeas starting 5
Rishon also managed to take the lead at halftime against strong opponents like Tel Aviv and i wont be surprised if they lead by doubledigits at halftime."
After they lost to Rishom, they won at home vs saratov (scoring 36pts in last quarter) and lost vs le Mans.
Today they will miss Denison their PF with 9.4ppg and their center Tibirna is doubtfull.
Both will be a big miss for the team which has a short rotation.
Some words about Khimik :
"Khimik is the strongest team in the Ukrainian Superleague.
34-0 2014-2015
35-5 2015-2016
0-1 in this Championsleague Season losing at home 77-80 against Saratov.
Going into this game as a underdog they managed to play a great game for their fans and almost won.
I wont even try to compare the ukrainian league with the french league.
Obviously Khimik plays in a much weaker league and also their rooster is not near to Le Mans level.
This year they added the two americans Smith and Allen.
Smith with NCAA experience and some lower european leagues, scoring 15.68ppg for Liege Basket, 19ppg in the Ukrainian Superleague and 28points vs Saratov.
Allen also with NCAA experience scoring 13.13ppg for Drexel last season.
With Antypov, Belikov, Pavlov and Petrov (all of them with ....ov :D) they got some decent local players in their rooster
About the league games i wont say something because they dominate their league with 7-0 at the moment."
Right now they are 1-3 in CL.
They only had one away game so far which they lost 68-49 vs Le Mans with awfull shootingpercentage.
I expect Khimkik to go for their second win today and its highly possible.
Oradea won very close 4 days ago vs Timisoara at home and they seem to struggle a bit.
With the missing of maybe two key players they should not be favourite in this game.
I will go for handicap and a small try on ML.
