While New York will certainly take the floor focused on getting a much-needed win to get back on the winning track, the fact is that the Grizzlies have been on a tear of late and are beginning to find some breathing room from the bevy of teams that continue to jockey for position for the 8th-playoff spot in the west. This means that Memphis must continue their winning play at MSG, where they have covered in 5 of 7 meetings.
The Griz have won 4 in a row and 5 of 6 with their only loss during this run was to the Utah Jazz by only 4 pts. Memphis has been good on the road with a 14-9 record this season.
I like the road team and the points in this matchup.
