Houston at Memphis 8:00 ET
Grizzlies (+) over Rockets- Mike D'Antoni has never been a coach that stressed about defense and that suits this Rockets squad just fine. Led by James Harden who has taken over the point-guard spot Houston leads the NBA in 3-point attempts with an amazing 39 attempts per game hitting just under 38%. Memphis on the other hand leads the NBA in 3-Point field goal defense allowing just 33.5% from beyond the arc. The Grizzlies will slow the tempo down under first year head coach David Fizdale and bump the Rockets out of their rhythm. Take MEMPHIS!
