We had the Grizzlies last night as a home dog, and they came through to win outright, but tonight we go against them. Even with Gasol, the Grizzlies were 4-19 on the road and in the 19 losses, 12 of them have come by 11 points or more - they just haven't been competitive. They have lost each of their last four on the road by at least 11 points. They have not responded well coming off a home win as a dog, as the last two times they went on the road they lost by 18 and 27 points. The Sixers are playing better now than they have at any point this season, and have not failed to cover in each of their last eight games and have won four straight. Their last three games against teams with a losing record have resulted in 21, 17 and 43-point wins. These teams are heading in opposite directions, so we will go with the hot hand and back the Sixers here.
