Memphis at Toronto

Both the Memphis Grizzlies and the Toronto Raptors have had success out of the gate this season, but the grizzlies have suffered a setback. The bad news is that PG Mike Conley suffered a broken bone in his back, and will be out an estimated 6-8 weeks. The line for this one has severely over-compensated for the loss. We have seen many times across all sports, when a team loses a vital cog they tend to come out with a lot of focus in their next game. I suspect that to be the case with Memphis tonight. Toronto has scored 99 points or more in 10 of their last 11 games, but does not play solid defense. They like to run while memphis plays playoff-type basketball, forcing a half-court game, which could frustrate the Raptors. Take the points on Memphis.
