LiontipsClippers vs Memphis. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Clippers got off to a slow start of the season. The Clippers lost the first match. In a Californian derby Tyronn Lue's men were narrowly beaten by Golden State (113:115). It was team's fourth consecutive defeat. Before that team from Los Angeles lost three preseason matches.
We should note that Clippers are playing without Kawhi Leonard so far. This player got an injury. That's why Paul George has to do all the work. Clippers' leader is doing everything he can, but sometimes it is just not enough.
Memphis had a weak opponent in the previous match. Ja Morant and his partners recorded a confident victory over Cleveland (132:121). Grizzlies' leader scored 37 points. Desmond Bane and De'Anthony Melton also put up a good performance. These players scored 22 and 20 points respectively.
In the preseason Grizzlies' results were ambiguous. They were alternating wins and losses. Seems like Taylor Jenkins' men are not consistent enough. Head coach still has a job to do.

Memphis Grizzlies are usually unsuccessful in Los Angeles matches. They lost 5 out of 7 most recent matches to Clippers at Staples Center. We offer to place a bet on the hosts.
