Croatia played a game at 170 points yesterday, which is definitely not typical of Perasovic. He admitted to have been surprised with how good Croatia's shooting was and that that was the reason the team let go in defense a bit. He will insist on a tougher defense today because it's very difficult to have three point efficiency of 60% every day. The win in the dress rehearsal would definitely mean a lot. Israel's offensive end is weakened since Halperin and Pnini are out, leaving them with Mekel and Casspi as the only good options in offense. It's no wonder Israel are scoring around 70 points per game. Against good defenses like Macedonia and Estonia, they stayed well under this margin. I believe this game will not be extra productive and that Perasovic will look for a tougher match just before the Eurobasket start. Croatia will be without Bogdanovic and Tomas today, which will also affect the offensive end, regardless of the fact Simon and Hezonja will spend more time on the floor. The margin are Croatia is very high and should not be missed out on.
