***SPLIT THE WAGER***
This is really a very tough physical spot for OKC tonight: 4 games in 5 days, with OKC-HOU-OKC-MEM! No home-home spots! When a team faces Memphis, they really need to be well physically because the Grizzlies can take advantage of tired teams like nobody else on this league! Last year, on back to back games, teams went 0-13 ATS at Memphis and even though this isn't the case for the Thunder tonight, they are on a tough spot and Memphis is fired up after two straight losses! The Grizzlies will pressure the ball handler, just like they did on the road against the Lakers on their last game and considering how turnover prone Westbrook is and with Maynor out for the season, I expect huge troubles for OKC at the PG position tonight!

Memphis needs to score fast break points and points in the paint and in my opinion, OKC isn't a top 10 defensive team! In the first match between these two teams, OKC won by 98-95 and Zach Randolph didn't have a big game and just shot 7-20 FG. In fact, OKC shot just 6-10 FG at the rim and 3-9 FG from 3-9 feet. Curiously, LAL had similar numbers against Memphis in their last game! OKC won that game because they shot 10-25 from 3pts and on this bad spot being so dependent from the outside shooting is very dangerous!

I expect this game to be really close, but with Memphis better spot and ability to take advantage from tired teams and turnover prone players, I believe Memphis is finally getting revenge over Oklahoma City tonight. Therefore, I am taking the Grizzlies in here. Split the wager!
