I don't know what the oddsmakers were thinking when they made the Grizzlies a favorite vs. the Clippers on Wednesday. I know Los Angeles was without Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, but it was still a tall task for Memphis. The Grizzlies did have a double digit lead in that game, but they weren't able to hold on. But Memphis is getting points in this spot against the Blazers? I see this game as more of a pick 'em vs. Portland, which always seems to beat up on bad teams but can't beat good teams. I consider the Grizzlies, especially with Jaren Jackson Jr. back, better than a good team. Take the Grizzlies in this spot.
The Memphis Grizzlies continue their West Coast road trip Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Portland has dropped consecutive games by a single point and lost five of its last six. Issues finishing games should continue Friday against a Grizzlies team bolstered by the recent return of Jaren Jackson Jr.
