This is basically how I view this game...
Sixers hung around the last couple of games but those were home tilts against the Knicks and Raptors. Now, they hit the road on a B2B, after losing a tough game last night. I feel like they are due for a blowout here. They only have so many go good games in 'em. Meanwhile, the Grizzlies have been off since Wednesday. They are healthy and I like the addition of Jeff Green to the roster as it gives Memphis more offensive potency. This is a team that could get hot down the home stretch.
That being said, laying 17.5 points lends itself to getting backdoored if Memphis plays a bunch of scrubs in the 2nd half. I feel comfortable playing Memphis first half and hoping the regulars race out to a sizable lead.
Grizz -10 1H

Yessir... Grizzly Bears brought out their spankin' paddles for the 1H cover. They should be good for game spread too, but it feels nice to have money in the bag by halftime.
