Golden State was getting bullied by Memphis all over the court in games two and three, and needed a boost in game four to avoid falling to the brink of elimination. They came out defensively tough, and held Memphis to 84 points. The Grizzlies stole game two here, but it was just the third loss of the season for the Warriors at home, and getting the equalizer on the road is going to propel this team that has taken control of the series now into game five with two of three at home. Memphis is averaging just 91.5 points per game in this series, and have found scoring droughts unavoidable. The Warriors, better known for their offense, have a very solid and underrated defense that should be very active at home tonight once again. Golden State has not allowed any team in the playoffs to score 100+ except the OT game vs. New Orleans. The Grizzlies have misfired following a double-digit loss at home of late at 1-4 ATS in their last five. The lack of offense and a solid defense have also led this team to a 37-13-1 ATS mark to the UNDER over their last 51 games, which includes 28-8-1 to the UNDER vs. the West. Golden State is now 7-0 to the UNDER following a 10+ point win, and this series has seen the last four come up shy of the total.Take Golden State and the UNDER in this one.
