LITHUANIA TO WIN AT ODDS 2,45

Final result: 102 - 79
Profit: 0.00 - 8 = -8

This is first round match at Summer Olympics in Group A. Argentina is set as favorite in this match, but in my opinion it doesn't make lot of sense.

Core of Argentina are players who were Olympics champions eight years ago and in meanwhile there are not younger players who play on top level.
Beside Delfino, Ginobili, Nocioni, Prigioni and Scoal others are not even close to the quality of the mentioned players. Also Nocioni had long term injury during this season, so he is not in best shape, and it will be also very hard to play each game on high level for 35 years old players like Ginobili and Prigioni.

At the other hand Lithuania is perfect mix of players with big experience and some young athletes.
They have both quality and quantity, so it will be very hard for Argentina to control them, especially in fast match with lot of shooting and running as it is expected.

From my point of view odds are set wrong and Lithuania should be favorite to win this match.
