Memphis Grizzlies at Los Angeles Clippers Prediction

Teams like Los Angeles make great targets because the more they win, the more likely they will spot inflated points especially when they have been economical overall. We saw Memphis in this position last year against the Cleveland Cavaliers, where the Grizzlies won outright as a +700 road dog. Takers of the Cavaliers on the Money Line may have lost their entire bankroll for the season on that one play. It is dangerous to place money on heavy favorites that the public smothers as they have the greatest propensity for let-downs. Memphis has played three contests in the last eight days. The Clippers have played three games in the preceding five days. Memphis is the fresher team and they typically play more physical basketball. While Los Angeles may win at will, they may have to tap in to their reserves in this one to pull out a victory as this is not Minnesota or Brooklyn across the floor from them. Tremendous upside in Memphis.
