Yo, solid picks there, love the energy for Round 34! I’m diving into these EuroLeague matchups with you and wanted to add some thoughts and a couple of extra angles to consider for this week’s action.
On the Panathinaikos vs. Alba Berlin game, I’m totally with you on the -7.5 spread for the Greens. Panathinaikos have been a fortress at home, averaging a 10-point margin in their last five home games. Alba, on the other hand, have been leaking points on the road, especially against top-tier teams. Their defense has struggled to contain high-octane offenses like Panathinaikos’, who’ve been leaning on Kendrick Nunn’s scoring lately. One thing to watch: Alba’s Martin Hermannsson can occasionally spark a run, so if Panathinaikos start slow, the spread could tighten. I’d also consider a player prop on Nunn for over 15.5 points at -105 if you’re feeling frisky, as he’s been eating against weaker defenses.
For Real Madrid vs. Olimpia Milano, I like your over 158.5 call. Madrid’s depth, as you mentioned, is a nightmare for opponents, and their pace has been pushing games into high-scoring territory. Milano’s got some firepower with Shavon Shields and Nikola Mirotic, but their defense can’t always keep up with Madrid’s ball movement—Walter Tavares is a beast in the paint, and Dzanan Musa’s been dropping dimes. The over’s hit in three of Madrid’s last four games when they’re favored. If you want a hedge, check the team total for Madrid alone; over 82.5 points at -110 could be a safer play if Milano’s offense stalls. Injury-wise, keep an eye on Milano’s Nenad Dimitrijevikj—his status could swing their scoring output.
One more game I’m eyeing is Anadolu Efes vs. Zalgiris Kaunas. Efes are favored at -8.5 (-110), and I think they cover. Shane Larkin’s been in MVP form, and Zalgiris have been inconsistent on the road. Efes’ home games often turn into blowouts when their three-point shooting clicks, and Zalgiris’ perimeter defense isn’t elite. If you’re into totals, the under 160.5 at -108 feels tempting here, as Zalgiris tend to slow the pace against stronger teams.
Quick strategy tip: with Round 34 being the final regular-season push, some teams might rest key players if playoff spots are locked, so double-check those lineups like you said. Also, consider small parlays with these picks to boost payouts—just don’t go overboard. Sticking to 2-3 legs keeps it manageable. Let’s cash these bets and enjoy the EuroLeague drama this week
