So efficient. I am truly amazed how good he is, 14 points on 6 shots, and its not like it was some cherry picked game, that is pretty much his average, he is averaging 1.8 point per shot. Insane.

I assume if it was tied at the end of 4 quarters the game would just end on aggregate victory for Rytas right?

It would be stupid to have the rules any other way.

Chimki

Chimki is the best Eurocup team IMO :( It's going to be really really tough to win.

So Rytas moves on to the Eurocup final 4. The will play BC Khimki in one semi-final. Final Four is April 14-15.

http://www.eurocupbasketball.com/eurocu ... ion/format

The team's VTB League best of three quarter finals start April 8, in Novgorod, with games 2 and if necessary game 3 in Vilnius on April 10-11. If Rytas wins that series, it advances to play.... Khimki. In that series, Rytas would host game one and play games 2 and if necessary game 3 in Khimki (dates April 20-21.) with the VTB Final 4 scheduled for May 2-3 in a venue to be determined.

Yeah, Chimki are the favorites to win it all, and they are also the host team.
But its one game, anything can happen. And they are not unbeatable, barely won series against Kuban.

They have some decent players such as Frizdon, Kelati, Chris Quinn, Monia, Planinic, Gelabali. That's a good team.

It says QF A winner plays QF B winner, and C and D play each other in the other game. We're in QF B and Khimki is in QF D

9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

Hmmm you're right. The page has updated and changed. It was saying A vs C and B vs D earlier.
