Portland Trail Blazers (-)
Yes, the Grizzlies have finally been winning some games again but they’ve been helped tremendously by facing a weak schedule. Now they must face a Blazers team that dominated them by 20+ points the last time they saw them which, by the way, was right before the Grizzlies current four game run. As for Portland, they are coming off of a loss at Houston on Sunday that came by a double digit margin. They certainly were not happy with that result and that means a special effort with extra intensity and focus will be brought to the arena in Memphis tonight. For the Grizzlies, that means it’s “reality check” time and they’re quickly returned to their losing ways as they face an opponent that is much tougher than the ones they’ve been facing. Consider a small play on Portland minus the points on Tuesday night.
