Golden State at Memphis

Golden State squeezed out a win in Game 1, 117-116, but failed to cover. The Warriors did most of their damage at home this season and are just 24-20 straight-up on the road. Golden State is 3-7 ATS as a road favorite, 5-13-1 ATS after a spread loss, and 3-7-2 ATS as chalk in the playoffs. They're favored again, but they face a talented and versatile Memphis squad that was the No. 2 seed in the West. Memphis is 26-16 ATS versus winning teams and 25-10 ATS against opponents that shoot 46% or better from the field. During the regular season, the Memphis defense was #12 in points surrendered, Top 10 in field goal shooting allowed, #11 at defending beyond the arc, and the offense was second in scoring. The Grizzlies also led the NBA in rebounding and are 29-16 ATS at home (20-10 ATS as an underdog). Play Memphis.
