Premium Pick

No NBA team has fallen apart like the Memphis Grizzlies have this season. A season of hope and surprise expectations filled the fans and team that a special year was underway in Memphis. The Grizzlies opened the season at 15-9 and looked to be a serious playoff threat. The roof fell in from that point on as a potential playoff team tanked badly going 5-21 in their last 26 games. It has been even worse lately at 2-14 in their last 16. The defense has been the only solid aspect of this team, but the offense in a season that has seen more scoring than any year in several decades is generating just 97.7 points per game in the last 26. Denver has been the biggest surprise in the West at 33-15 on the season. The Nuggets have won and covered four of their last five and have defended poor offenses very well. Memphis can keep the score down, but the problem is, as always, they can't score enough to be competitive. Make the play on Denver and the UNDER.
