LiontipsMemphis vs San Antonio. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
We can say that Grizzlies had a solid season, but it is still not over - club has a chance to advance to the playoffs. 21-year old Ja Morant significantly improved during this season and became a leader on the court.
Memphis' most recent game was against Golden State, and Steph Curry's team recorded a victory over Grizzlies (101:113). Though Taylor Jenkins' men were most likely saving their energy for the decisive play-in match.
Grizzlies will take on San Antonio and will, without a doubt, do everything for the win, especially at their home ground.
Spurs' game is really dissapointing during the last few seasons and the current one is not an exception. Team fought for the play-in place until the end of the season and eventually managed to keep the tenth position in the Eastern conference.
San Antonio lost four matches in a row - to Brooklyn (116:128), to New York (98:102) and twice to Phoenix. Gregg Popovich's side got incredibly lucky to keep the tenth spot despite the slip-ups.
Now it will be very tough for the club to reach the later stages, because even if they will defeat Grizzlies, their next opponent will be either Lakers or Golden State.
