We are just on a week away from the start of the Men’s and Women’s Basketball matches at the London 2012 Olympics. The Opals (Women’s) are genuine medal candidates and are currently 2nd favourites at 7/1 in betting, with the USA women’s team odds on at 1/10 to win Gold.
The Boomers (Men’s) are 100/1 long shots to take gold, but the Boomers look like they should sneak into the knockout stage along with Spain, Russia and Brazil as the top 4 teams from each group progress. The Spaniards (Men) are 4/9 favourites to top group B, and the Boomers should take confidence from the fact they just came off two great warmup games against them in Spain.
Poll’s below. Be patient if they fail to load and refresh.
