Nets at Grizzlies picks and predictions

Prediction

Grizzlies 121, Nets 107

Moneyline

PASS.

There is no value on Memphis (-750) to win Wednesday.

Against the spread

LEAN GRIZZLIES -11.5 (-115).

Brooklyn is coming off an overtime loss and is on the second night of a back-to-back. Expect a slow start for the Nets, which will allow Memphis to create distance.

With the possible return of Morant, Memphis has a distinct advantage.

Over/Under

BET OVER 226.5 (-110).

Brooklyn has scored 115 or more in 3 of its 4 games this season, including 139 Friday. It has allowed 116 or more points in 3 of its last 4, including both of its road games.

Memphis has scored 123 or more points in 3 of its 4 games this season — including both of its home games — and allowed 124 or more in 3 of 4 games.

Brooklyn Nets at Memphis Grizzlies odds, picks and predictions

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

The Memphis Grizzlies (2-1) welcome the Brooklyn Nets (1-1) to FedEx Forum Monday. Tip is set for 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Nets vs. Grizzlies odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Grizzlies have weathered the early storm without 2 key pieces — G Dillon Brooks and F Jaren Jackson Jr. JJJ will be out until the start of 2023, but Brooks could return soon.

The Grizzlies were destroyed on a nationally-televised game Saturday by the Dallas Mavericks 137-96. Other than that, they took down the Houston Rockets by 7 and beat the New YorkKnicks in overtime by 3.

The Nets lost to the New Orleans Pelicans in their season and home opener 130-108. They then took down the Raptors 109-105.

G Kyrie Irving found his rhythm after a tough 1st game, scoring 30 points. C Nic Claxton was an important factor, scoring 19 points and collecting 11 rebounds.

Nets at Grizzlies picks and predictions

Prediction

Grizzlies 115, Nets 112

Moneyline

BET GRIZZLIES (-115).

The Nets had a rough opener against the Pelicans, but with G Ben Simmons returning and his rust, things looked much better against a solid Toronto Raptors team. The key problems still remain, and that’s on the glass.

The offensive rebounding rate for Memphis is 5th-best in the NBA, and the Nets rank 29th in defensive rebounding rate and were abused on the glass against the Pelicans.

Brooklyn also sits 19th in turnover rate, so taking on a strong defensive side with an isolation-heavy style of play may not bode well for the Nets.

Memphis was 24-9 straight up as a home favorite last season and was 20-13 ATS in those battles as well. Ultimately, taking the Grizzlies is my favorite play in this game.

Against the spread

PASS.

Give me the Grizzlies to win outright in this game and avoid playing the 1.5-point spread.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 232.5 (-110).

The Nets want to play through Irving and Kevin Durant which typically means not running a transition-heavy offense.

They sit 21st in the NBA in pace with the Grizzlies ranking 20th. Despite G Ja Morant‘s style of play, there aren’t a lot of others that get out in transition with the young star.

Expect a slower-paced game, and with this a total this high, I would back the Under 232.5 (-110).

Brooklyn Nets at Memphis Grizzlies odds, picks and predictions

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

The Memphis Grizzlies (49-23) host the Brooklyn Nets (38-34) Wednesday at the FedExForum for a 7:30 p.m. ET tip-off. Below, we look at the Nets vs. Pistons odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

Brooklyn has won 6 of its last 7 games — 5-2 against the spread (ATS) —  which includes back-to-back victories at home over the Portland Trail Blazers Friday (128-123) and the Utah Jazz Monday (114-106).

Memphis is 5-1 straight up (SU), but just 3-3 ATS in the last six games with the most recent being a 122-98 beatdown of the Rockets Sunday in Houston.

The Grizzlies hammered the Nets 118-104 in Brooklyn Jan. 3 as 6.5-point road underdogs and the Nets had both Kevin Durant and James Harden in the lineup.

Nets at Grizzlies odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 123, Grizzlies 114

Money line

GIMME the NETS (-125)  for 1 unit because they are just a different team when both KD and Kyrie Irving play.

According to CleaningTheGlass.com (CTG), Brooklyn scores 18.3 more points per 100 possessions when both KD and Kyrie are on the floor, which would rank in the 99th percentile of all 5-man lineups.

Furthermore, the Nets have flipped the switch post-All-Star break. Brooklyn is 4-2 SU on the road since the All-Star Game, third in adjusted net rating (plus-12.2) and first in ATS margin (plus-15.2), per CTG.

Also, the Nets are 7-1 ATS in their last nine road games and 5-1 ATS in their last six on the road versus teams with a winning record.

On top of that, the Grizzlies (+102) would feel like a fake sharp bet. Technically, Memphis scores 3.5 fewer points per 100 possessions when Morant is on the floor, per CTG. But, the Grizzlies will need someone who can create their own look, especially against two of the NBA’s best scorers.

I’d BET the NETS (-125)  all the way up to -140 before laying up to 3.5 points with Brooklyn.

Against the spread

PASS  since Brooklyn’s ML is only 13 cents on the dollar more expensive than the Nets -1.5. (-112).

Obviously, Brooklyn should win by margin here but I’m confident enough in the Nets to take their ML instead of having to sweat them ATS.

Over/Under

PASS  because there’s no value in this line since my prediction aligns with the market’s projected total. For what it’s worth, Brooklyn is 37-34-1 O/U (21-15-1 O/U on the road) and Memphis is 37-32-3 O/U (17-16-1 O/U at home).
