Fourteen of the last sixteen games in this series played in Memphis have gone UNDER, pushing this line down low. But, this game qualifies for a unique but great OVER system. Games with a dominant rebounding team that is poor from beyond the arc like Utah (<33%) facing a good 3PT defense (<33%) have gone OVER 87% of the time (27-4) over the last 5 seasons. Utah's offense has picked up of late, taking their sub-90 average for the season up by six points on average over their last five games. Memphis has also found some offense, boosting their season average 91.6 to almost 100 over their last five games. Their great defense has also lost some luster of late. One star on the OVER here.
