T.M. Selection: Grizzlies/Timberwolves OVER.

I am on the over in the Memphis Grizzlies vs Minnesota Timberwolves game on Thursday. The Grizzlies just tied the series up 1-1 in their most recent game and they shut down the Timberwolves in that game, not even giving up 100+ points to them. They looked a lot better with their defensive effort in that game but their offense wasn't slowed down at all since they still put up 120+ points in that game. I think their defensive effort will not be as good in this game though with it being a road game and I expect them to resort to more offense to win this game. The Timberwolves put up 130 points in the 1st game of this series and I think their offense will be firing in this game on their home court. The Grizzlies haven't really played great defense all year and I think their defensive effort will be lacking in this road game. The Timberwolves have already shown they can put up points on the Grizzlies and that was in a road game, I expect them to put up a ton of points here playing a better game on their home court. I still think the Grizzlies are going to keep up in this game and I expect this to be a close game until the end. I think both offenses are just going to keep putting up points here trying to regain the lead as it goes back and forth and I see there being very little defense from either team in this game. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 125-121 Grizzlies.
