00:00J.Y. let's reset the odds market here at the FanDuel Sportsbook as Canada dropping out
00:07one of those teams that maybe you thought would be able to overtake Team USA.
00:10They are now out.
00:11You take a look at Team USA up to a minus 600 price followed by Germany plus 650, Serbia
00:1616 to 1 and France the home nation 24 to 1.
00:20Obviously it's easy to say Team USA is going to win this.
00:22If we said Team USA was not going to win, who would get your dollars from the remaining
00:27three teams?
00:29To me, honestly, I think it's Germany.
00:32I know they're going against France in the home nation and they're going to be fired
00:37up in Paris.
00:38But I look at that guard play, you know, with Schroeder, with the shooter, obviously the
00:43play of Wagner has been really, really good.
00:45And they play a really good half-court style of defense.
00:49And there's another guy, we talked about him the other day, Daniel Theiss, that's, I guess
00:53you would call him a journeyman in the league, but does a really good job representing his
00:58home country.
00:59I still get worried about the guard play of France, even though they played well yesterday.
01:03So I think Germany presents our biggest challenge.
01:06And we saw them in a game, in an exhibition, one-point game, two minutes left to go.
01:11It took a LeBron 3, a LeBron layup for us to close the game.
01:14I think Germany will give us a challenge.
01:16And if there's a team that I think loses to a beat that we beat by less than that 17 plus
01:21that we've done every game, I think it's Germany.
01:23I think they're going to try and keep the game close.
