Croatia - Greece

Hello. Olympic qualifier. Croatia against Greece. We are going with a +6 handicap for Croatia. The Croats look to be in great form and have made it to the finals with ease. They have defeated all their friendly opponents and confidently secured a spot in the qualifier, only tripping up against New Zealand. I think their opponent may have been slightly underestimated. The Greeks also seem to be dominating every game and breezed through the semifinals. However, the Croats will definitely have something to offer on the court, making it not so easy for Giannis. There will be Zubac and Saric waiting for him, while Peru has Smith and Hezonja in their lineup. Overall, Croatia's strength in basketball seems to surpass Greece's. I expect a close game, and even though I believe Greece will come out on top in the Olympic qualifiers, a 11.5 point handicap is very realistic for the Croats to cover. Good luck.
