Then, at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, Tierney hit two of his three predictions: Germany (+200) to win the most gold medals and the United States winning under 10.5 gold medals (+110).

Top 2024 Paris Olympics picks for Aug. 7
Tierney sees value with Spain in their knockout stage men’s basketball game against Belgium on Wednesday. Although Spain went unbeaten in pool play and Belgium just 1-2, Spain is a +5.5 point underdog. The reason, according to Tierney, is that it’s widely thought Belgium sleep-walked through pool play, He can’t get over the fact that Spain is 3-0, and gives the Spaniards the nod.
“The Spanish might have been occasionally unimpressive — they escaped lowly Puerto Rico by a point — but taking points with the 3-0 side against the 1-2 opponent is irresistible,” Tierney told SportsLine. See the rest of Tierney’s picks here.
