Lee Kostroski Went 4-0 Yesterday which included (2) 8*s
REASON FOR PICK: 7* PLAY ON OVER LA Clippers @ Memphis Grizzlies
Based on pace of play calculations this game should easily eclipse the 200 point total as Memphis and L.A. combine to score at a minimum 210. The Grizzlies recently hired Lionel Hollins to replace since departed head coach Marc Iavaroni and the first thing Hollins did was change the Grizzlies offensive philosophy. Memphis now looks for easy baskets in transition with speedy point guard Conley pushing the ball (averaging 7 assists per game last four) up the court. Just by looking at the Grizzlies pace of play and point production and you can see the difference. In their last four games the Grizz have scored 102, 98, 113 and 104 points. Prior to that, they had topped 100 points just 3 times in their last 20 games which included a streak of 10 straight games without topping the century point. In their last four games (all overs) the Grizzlies have attempted 75 or more shots every game. Memphis has shot over 49% their last three games and have scored 28 or more points in 8 of their last 16 quarters of play. The LA Clippers haven’t had much success stopping anyone this season as they’ve allowed 100 or more points in 14 of their last nineteen games. The Clippers defense has been atrocious of late allowing 125, 119, 106 and 112 their last four games. On the road its worse yet as the Clippers have given up 100 plus points in 12 of their last 13 games. We’ll also need L.A. to score in this game to reach 200 or more points but that shouldn’t be a big problem as Baron Davis and Zach Randolph both have a couple games under their belts after being injured and they will contribute tonight on the offensive end of the floor. Bet this game OVER the total.
As of Thursday night quite a few NBA lines aren’t even posted so I will be adding picks to this website later in the day on Friday after I’ve had enough time to properly research them. Be sure to check back here for any additional NBA winners from me. Best of luck, Lee
