I believe the books are taking motivation as a big factor into this game, but we\u2019ll dive in and find the best bet for this game.<\/p>\n Jazz Out of Tune<\/h3>\nWhat a slide it\u2019s been for Utah as they\u2019ve lost six out of seven with their only win coming against the hapless Lakers.<\/p>\n Not only have they been a fade on the money line, they\u2019re 0-5 ATS in their last five games, and 0-5 O\/U so taking the under and fading Utah has been very profitable.<\/p>\n I suspect the books are making Utah a favorite here because they need wins to help their seeding as they are hanging on to the #6 seed and Memphis is locked in, but this team is in turmoil and Mitchell and Gobert are not clicking and there\u2019s lots of rumblings about Mitchell leaving after this season.<\/p>\n Traditionally, taking Utah at home is a good bet, but this team is different, not very good and 16-21-1 ATS at home this season.<\/p>\n Grizzlies Staying Hungry<\/h3>\nMemphis is on such a roll, they sat their starters in a throwaway game, and still beat Phoenix. They\u2019ve won 11 out of 12 games, and are 8-2 ATS their last 10.<\/p>\n Dillon Brooks will be out tonight, but they will still have Tyus Jones, Bane, Williams, Jackson and Adams starting with their amazing bench playing.<\/p>\n This may be a suckers bet, but I won\u2019t be betting against Memphis anytime soon and I certainly won\u2019t put my money on Utah.<\/p>\n Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction<\/h2>\nUtah shouldn\u2019t be -5.5 favorites over many teams right now, and Memphis isn\u2019t one of them. The Grizzlies have maybe the best chemistry in the league while Utah has one of the worst, I\u2019ll gladly take Memphis and the 5.5 points.<\/p>\n Prediction: Grizzlies +5.5<\/strong><\/p>\n \n \n |
