Advice and prediction
You can expect the Nets to play with a bit more fire and urgency on Monday night after Kevin Durant called out the team for having the wrong attitude against the Clippers, but they’re facing a very tough Grizzlies squad that, despite their long injury list, has not lost a game by seven points or more since December 8. Nets -6.5 feels like a big spread, and I think the backcourt combo of Morant and Desmond Bane can keep this one close, if not win outright.
Take the Grizzlies to cover, and the under is also the right play. Memphis has gone under 228.5 in six of their last seven games, and the Nets should play more committed defense against a playoff-caliber squad.
Prediction: Nets 114, Grizzlies 110
