LA Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies 23.04.2023
After a dominant game 1 performance, the Lakers came out with flat tires in game 2 and paid the ultimate price after falling into a big hole in the first quarter and never really recovering after that. They did attempt a comeback of sorts in the 3rd q but for every run they made, the Grizzlies had an answer. Ultimately the loss definitely felt like a missed opportunity considering the Grizzlies played without star guard Ja Morant who injured his wrist in game 1 and was a game-time decision for this game but was ruled out.
The Grizzlies certainly feel like they are very much back in seires and will look to reclaim homecourt if they can get a win here. They got huge contributions from unheralded players like Xavier Tillman who turned the clock to lead them with 22 points on the night. Morant’s status for the game is still unclear but as they have shown this season they can weather the storm without him.
Game 3 is a crucial game and we are likely to see both teams come out and play tight defensively. As such we do not anticipate a high scoring game here and we will pick the under market here. We are going for Under 226.5 points
Tip: Under 226.5 Points
