With a match that in the -not so distant- past was a duel deep in the Playoffs of the West, I close tonight's estimates, the Spurs will welcome the Grizzlies.
A healthy walk for Popovich's team with the Rockets, the final 134-104 came in a match that essentially lasted three seasons. They were thus given the opportunity to take some breaths in view of today's back-to-back against a formed team. Very improved this year is the center Poeltl who has found a role to suit him, constant value Dejounte Murray (19 points, 10 assists). However, they are still far behind the 10th position that leads to the Play-in, of course no one will tell them anything if they do not succeed since the roster is maximum for 10 teams, a fact that removes a lot of stress.
From the second in a few days and the third this year, their defeat against Dallas comes from the Grizzlies, the terrible appearance of Ja Morant, who now hears his name in the discussion about the MVP, went to waste. This is the story for Memphis this year, when it comes down to it and the rolistas perform to the best of their ability, they are capable of something very good, but this is not the case and the third place they currently have in the ranking can be described as and exceedance. They will still have some absences today, at least the good guard Bane is back.
The Spurs are not for the faint of heart, as they try in all games, no matter if this is often not enough. In defense, the biggest problems of the hosts, especially when they face teams with offensive talent above average. I expect something similar to happen today, Morand is unstoppable at the moment and can lead the Grizzlies to a good productive game with Over 115,5 points which gives 1,74 to betshop. Besides, in the previous year between them, the "bears" prevailed with 118-105.
