Result:
LOSS

The Memphis Grizzlies are a horrible team that made a little run, as almost any team does, and it is reflected in the line posted here, but not justified by what the team is. Memphis made a nice run winning five out of six but are back to their losing ways dropping their last two. The Grizzlies are 1-16 straight up against the last 17 teams they have played with a winning record, so to see a team positioned as almost a pick-em game is ridiculous. The total here reflects just one side, and that is that Phoenix is a scoring machine, but that hasn't been close to the case for Memphis when playing at home. They have only reached this total twice all season long at home, and when a team with a winning record has come to Memphis, none have played a game that would top this total! The Grizzlies have hosted 13 games vs. the NBA's top 10 scoring teams, and just one has topped this total, while the average of the 13 games is not even 200 - it is 197.2 points per game! The 13 games have seen the total fall short of 200 in eight of the games or 61.5% of the time! Phoenix is among those teams, as they played a game that featured just 190 points earlier in Memphis. This one is way too high, so I am backing Phoenix and the UNDER.
