T.M. Selection: Grizzlies/Cavaliers OVER.

I am on the over in the Memphis Grizzlies vs Cleveland Cavaliers game on Tuesday. The Grizzlies have looked great in their games lately and they have been putting up a lot of points. They have put up 110+ points in 4 of their previous 5 games, including their 2 most recent games where they scored 118 points in both. Their offense has been performing so well in their games lately that their defense has been left to rot a bit. They have given up 100+ points to the opposing team in 10 games in a row now. The Grizzlies just won a big game against the Nets in Brooklyn 118-104 and I think that they are going to put up a ton of points in this game too. The Cavaliers are missing some starters that will play a role in their defensive play and I think that this game is going to turn into a shootout as the Cavs try to match the shooting and scoring from the Grizzlies in this game. The Cavaliers have also been having a good season though and they have some good players on their team still that can shoot the ball and put up points. The Cavaliers have been very consistent on offense this year and have put up 100+ points in 19 of their previous 20 games. They have even had some really high scoring games lately, putting up 144 points in 1 of their games from their previous 5. I don't think the Cavaliers will be able to slow down the Grizzlies in this game with their defense so the only way they will be able to keep up is to match their scoring and both of these teams can shoot well and put up the points. I am expecting a high scoring game here with not a lot of defense so I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 119-113 Grizzlies.
