haven't won at home in a long time. when it happens it is going to explode. Look for that to HAPPEN TONIGHT! .. but.. the way the New Jersey Nets have been playing on the road, the Grizzlies' woes at FedEx Forum could continue.
Memphis tries to avoid its ninth straight home loss Monday night when it faces the Nets, who are looking to win four in a row on the road for the first time in two seasons.
Since winning a franchise-record 11 straight at FedEx Forum from Dec. 18-Jan. 25, the Grizzlies (32-31) have lost nine of 10 there. They defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 95-93 on Feb. 1 in Memphis before dropping their next eight home contests.
A loss Monday would give the Grizzlies their longest home slide since dropping a franchise-record 11 in a row from Feb. 16-March 31, 1996, when the team was based in Vancouver.
Facing the Nets (7-55) would seem to be a good opportunity to snap that skid, but New Jersey has won three straight on the road. The Nets won 113-93 at New York on Saturday, and defeated Boston and Charlotte in their previous two road games.
