Grizzlies at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 106, Grizzlies 100

Moneyline

PASS.

The Nets (-370) should come away with the win, but they are not worth the risk of betting on as such heavy favorites. Bet on the spread and/or O/U instead.

Against the spread

LEAN GRIZZLIES +8.5 (-106).

Memphis has covered the spread in 7 of its last 9 matchups vs. Brooklyn and covered the spread in its last away contest. Both teams are under .500 ATS. The Grizzlies are 29-32 ATS, while the Nets are 27-30-3.

Memphis is actually better on the road (13-17) than at home (7-24), so the Grizzlies have a solid chance to compete here.

This is only a lean because Brooklyn is slightly hotter ATS recently.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 210.5 (-108).

The Under has hit in 6 of Brooklyn’s last 7 games and is 8-2 in Brooklyn’s last 10. The Under is also 33-26-1 for the Nets this season. For Memphis, the Under hit in 3 of its last 5 outings and is 34-26-1 this season. The Under also hit in the last Grizzlies-Nets matchup and is 3-1 in the last 4 matchups in Brooklyn.

This is a lean because recent O/U battles have been even for the Grizzlies and in recent Memphis-Brooklyn matchups.

Memphis Grizzlies at Brooklyn Nets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Memphis Grizzlies at Brooklyn Nets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Brooklyn Nets (7-9) welcome the Memphis Grizzlies (10-6) to the Barclays Center Sunday. Tip is set for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Grizzlies vs. Nets odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Nets are coming off a 109-107 win over the Portland Trail Blazers in which Brooklyn covered as a 2.5-point road underdog Thursday. Brooklyn is 4-2 against the spread (ATS) over its last 6.

The Nets are led by F Kevin Durant, who is averaging 30.6 points per game and shooting a terrific 52.9% from the field. Durant is also averaging 5.2 assists and 6.6 rebounds per game.

The Grizzlies, who will be down arguably their 3 most impactful players, are just 6-10 ATS this season. They did cover in their most recent game, a 121-110 win at home Friday against Oklahoma City, covering as 6.5-point favorites.

F Dillon Brooks and G Tyus Jones will likely lead Memphis. They are averaging 15.8 and 10.6 points per game, respectively. Memphis is 1-2 ATS over its last 3.

Grizzlies at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 114, Grizzlies 105

Moneyline

PASS.

The Grizzlies are down too many key players, and the Nets have Durant. Both reasonings justify the values here, and the Nets (-290) have no value. The Grizzlies (+240) have some value, but without Morant, they aren’t worth backing.

Against the spread

BET NETS -7.5 (-110).

Neither team has been great at covering this season, but the Nets have been better at covering lately, 4-2 ATS over their last 6.

Both the Grizzlies’ offensive rating and defensive rating sit outside of the top 10 and won’t be aided by the absence of their best player on both sides of the court.

The Nets also have a better effective field-goal rate and turnover rate.

While the Grizzlies should get more second-chance opportunities, without the offensive firepower of Morant and Bane, converting those into points won’t be easy.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 221.5 (-115).

The Grizzlies and Nets both rank outside the top 15 in pace, and given Memphis will be without many key weapons, where it’ll get its scoring from may not be clear either.

The Nets are 2-8 O/U over their last 10 and 6-10 O/U this season. The Grizzlies are 3-7 O/U over their last 10 and 1-3 O/U over their last 4, so they haven’t been hitting their total.

Grizzlies at Nets odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Grizzlies 111, Nets 108

Money line

Slight “LEAN” to the GRIZZLIES (+220) for a tiny wager, if at all, because I “like” Memphis getting points in this spot but the Nets are much healthier heading into this game.

However, Brooklyn has struggled with quality competition. The Nets are 3-6 SU against teams in the top-10 of efficiency differential with the 18th-ranked adjusted net rating at minus-5.3 points per 100 possessions and the worst spread differential at a minus-8.3 ATS margin (CTG).

Backing the Nets at home also hasn’t been very profitable this season. Brooklyn is 10-8 SU at home but has the 20th-ranked adjusted net rating and the third-worst spread differential at a minus-5.6 ATS margin. Whereas Memphis has the second-best cover rate on the road at 11-5 ATS.

Furthermore, Memphis has the ninth-best non-garbage time offensive rating and Brooklyn has also struggled against good offensive teams.

The Nets are 2-7 SU versus teams in the top-10 of offensive rating with the 24th-ranked adjusted net rating at minus-8.9 points per 100 possessions and the worst spread differential at a minus-11.8 ATS margin.

Again, I only slightly “LEAN” to the GRIZZLIES (+220) for a small bet with the plan of betting much more on Memphis’s spread.

Against the spread

Definitely BET the GRIZZLIES +6.5 (-112) heavier than or instead of Memphis’s money line.

This is a Pros vs. Joe’s game with the presumed sharp money backing Memphis but more bets have been placed on Brooklyn. Nearly 60% of the cash is on the Grizzlies but roughly 55% of the action is on the Nets according to pregame.com.

Typically, in sports betting, it’s wise to follow the money especially when it’s counter to the public. Plus the oddsmakers have reacted to the money by making Brooklyn’s spread cheaper.

The GRIZZLIES +6.5 (-112) is by far my favorite wager in this game.

Over/Under

“LEAN” to the UNDER 228.5 (-115) for a half-unit because this total is just way too high. Brooklyn is 7-11 O/U at home with a minus-3.3 total margin, Memphis is 7-8-1 O/U on the road with a minus-4.9 total margin and both teams are in the bottom-eight of 3-point attempt rate.

Grizzlies at Nets: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Grizzlies 114, Nets 109

Money line (ML)

The Nets were upset as 11-point road favorites by the Charlotte Hornets 106-104 Sunday. Durant and PG Kyrie Irving held up their end of the bargain; KD scored 29 points on 9-for-15 shooting with 4 assists while Irving had 25 points on 10-for-17 shooting and 6 assists. Brooklyn’s major issue was Charlotte feasting on the inside as the Hornets outscored the Nets 64-26 in the paint.

Memphis took a 122-112 home loss to the Atlanta Hawks as a 2.5-point favorite Saturday. The double-digit margin doesn’t indicate how close the game was but the Grizzlies did have an off-night shooting as Memphis made only 40% of its field goals and 30% of 3-pointers.

The Grizzlies won and covered the spread in both meetings with the Nets last season but it’s hard to take a lot away from those performances as Durant wasn’t playing for Brooklyn and Irving played in only the first head-to-head meeting—a 134-133 overtime win for Memphis.

Last season, Memphis led the NBA in points in the paint per game with 55.9 PPG and was 4th in fast-break points (17.2 PPG). Brooklyn was 10th in opponent’s PITP last year and didn’t have any notable bigs depart the team so the Nets’ last game could’ve been an aberration or a result of new coach Steve Nash’s game plan. The Grizzlies had a meager 44 PITP vs. the Hawks but had 66 PITP in their first game against the San Antonio Spurs last Wednesday.

Also, being as Grizzlies-Nets is part of a back-to-back for Brooklyn, KD could take a precautionary rest-day since he spent last season sidelined by injury. If Durant isn’t playing, I like the Grizzlies outright and we’re going to get an awesome price.

For now, I’ll “LEAN” GRIZZLIES (+280) for a quarter-unit with a plan to bet the spread heavier.

Against the spread (ATS)

BET GRIZZLIES +5.5 (-110) for 1.5 units. The pro-Memphis argument is in the section above and all we’re doing is making the safer/wiser play on Grizzlies plus points.

Over/Under (O/U)

PASS ON THE TOTAL.I’ve projected this game to fall short of BetMGM’s total; however, the market is betting the Over, according to Pregame.com. The market sees something I don’t, apparently, and I don’t feel like fading it.
