T.M. Selection: Grizzlies.

I think Memphis will not only win this game, but do so in blowout fashion. Will rest lead to 'rust' here for the home side and an inability to pull away for a blowout? I say no as both teams have been off for a few days and Brooklyn was terrible on the road last season and they are struggling on their travels again this year. The fact that Brooklyn continues to deal with injury issues is not helping matters. The fact that the Grizzlies only have 8 losses this season but 2 of the 8 were against the Nets also makes Brooklyn poised for a massive road loss here in my opinion. Memphis wants to avoid the season series 3-0 sweep and the Nets are 5-8 on the road, while the Grizzlies are 11-3 at home. Memphis has won 9 of 10 games and the average margin of victory was 14 points in those 9 wins. The Grizzlies can hammer a short-handed Brooklyn team here. As mentioned off the top, I say Memphis not only wins this game, but does so in blowout fashion.

T.M. Prediction: 126-104 Memphis.
