(NBA) Golden State vs. Memphis,
Point Spread: 2.00 | -105.00 Memphis (Home)
Result: Win
ASA play on 8* Memphis Grizzlies +2 over Golden State Warriors, 9:30 PM ET - This is a make-or-break game for the young Grizzlies, and we think they’ll respond with a home win over the Warriors. In fact, if they don’t win this game the series is over. Memphis showed great resilience in the opening round when they lost at home to Minnesota in the opener then bounced back with a 28-point win in Game 2 of that series. While Golden State hit several of their season averages and played as they were expected to, the Grizzlies did not, yet still kept the opener close. Memphis shot just 42% overall which was below their season average of 46.1%. Golden State did a great job on the boards in the opener but expect a swing in favor of Memphis in this category as they were the #1 offensive rebounding team in the NBA, Golden State was 10th. Defensively these two teams were essentially dead even in the regular season ranking 10th and 11th. Memphis was very good off a loss this season with a 20-9 SU overall record, 12-4 SU at home off a loss. The Grizzlies are also 8-3 ATS as a home dog this season with a +/- of +1.5PPG. It’s going to be another close game, but we like the home team to break through with a “W”.
