The Memphis Grizzlies made a lot of strides last season. They made a deep playoff run, which included an opening round surprise vs. these same San Antonio Spurs. They took down San Antonio in the first round 4-2, and in the process went 5-0-1 ATS. They gained valuable experience in the process despite the absence of their top player Rudy Gay and his 20 points per game and 6 boards. It will only serve to make them better this season, while the Spurs began to show their age a year ago. Tim Duncan will be 36-years-old in April, his minutes and productivity are in decline, and Manu Ginobli is heading for 35. The Spurs will be hard pressed to win as many games as a year ago, while Memphis is a team with a high ceiling, going against a reputation line tonight in San Antonio. Play on Memphis in this one.
