Game Preview

It was a turbulent end of the season for the Grizzlies with Taylor Jenkins’s departure. Still, they managed to finish 8th. They won 4 of the last 6 games, which improved their situation and pushed them into the play-in zone.

They still have one of the most potent offenses in the NBA, scoring nearly 120 points per game. However, 4 of their last 6 games have seen the TOTAL going UNDER.

As for the Warriors, they had one hell of a battle against the LA Clippers, losing following an OT 124-119. This loss pushed them down to the play-in spot, and now have to fight for the 7th seed.

The Warriors haven’t played well lately. In the last three games, they won two, both on the road, and lost three, all at their Chase Center. This isn’t that frequent when talking about the Warriors.

  • TOTAL went UNDER in 4 of the Grizzlies’ last 6 games.
  • Memphis is 4-2 SU in the previous 6 NBA events.
  • Warriors are 1-4 AGAINST THE SPREAD at home in the previous 5 contests.
  • TOTAL went UNDER in 4 of the Warriors’ last 6 games.

Grizzlies vs. Warriors Head to Head

In 4 regular-season games, Golden State won three times and the Grizzlies just once. Every time, the winner scored 120+ points.

Grizzlies vs. Warriors Predictions

Golden State had its ups and downs, but we can’t believe they are going to lose four straight games at home. Because of the high-numbers theory, we have to bet on the Warriors. Again, no matter their form (and the current isn’t so bad), GSW won’t lose at home four times in a row.
