Warriors go for 71st win as the Grizzlies battle for playoff position - Handicappers Hideaway

The fans at FedEx Forum will be wondering whether the Golden State
Warriors will be playing their starters most of the game as they are in
position to break the Bulls single season win record if they win out the
regular season or will they rest for the NBA Playoff grind as they have
locked up the top spot in the Western Conference.



The Grizzlies on the other hand are in a knock-down drag-out with the
Trail Blazers and Mavericks for spots 5-7 in the playoffs. Memphis
currently is in 6th, one game ahead of Dallas and one game behind
Portland. These games are important as the 7th seed will have to face
the Spurs who have proven to be almost as tough this season as the
Warriors.



Oddsmakers currently have the Warriors listed as 13-point favorites versus the Grizzlies, while the game's total is sitting at 211.



Memphis was a 103-93 loser in its last match on the road against the
Mavericks. They failed to cover the +6.5-point spread as underdogs,
while the total score of 196 sent OVER bettors to the payout window.



Golden State won its last outing, a 112-101 result against the Spurs on
April 07. The Warriors covered in that game as a -6-point favorite,
while the 213 combined points took the game OVER the total.
