The Greeks showed their strength against BiH yesterday, beating them by 39 points difference. Russia crushed them, too, but the Greek way was far more impressive. They didn't allow their opponent over 12 points in any of the periods. The defense are going towards the 100% Katsikaris keeps talking about, and a different player stands out in the offense every time. The width the Greeks have is why you should pick this one today. The second Greek five are much better than the first Russian, and the difference will keep growing through the 40 minutes, even more so because the Greeks are playing at home, and will want to leave an impression. Russia would hardly match them even with their full lineup, and without half their team, it'll be even tougher. It should be mentioned that the Russian backcourt lacks a player who's handy with the ball, who could organize the game, and the aggressive Greek backs will definitely take an advantage of that. Koufos and Bourossis will take care of the rebounds, and it's really hard to find a segment where the Russians could hope to be better. Besides, they stayed at -34, and -38 against similar teams - Serbia and France. We're not saying the Greeks will win this by 30+, but they should definitely have a double-digit difference in their win.
