Before tip-off, the Basketlog model gave the Grizzlies a 54% chance to win: prediction missed. This season, the Grizzlies are 12-16 at home and the Warriors are 11-17 on the road. Over the last 10 games: 3-7 for the Grizzlies and 4-6 for the Warriors (current streaks: Grizzlies L2, Warriors L1).

The analysis Model

Close to a coin flip: nothing really sets either side apart. The model projects Grizzlies 116 – 114 Warriors, a margin of about 1.3 points in favor of the Grizzlies and a total around 230 points. Expect a game at a standard NBA pace. The Warriors played yesterday: fatigue often shows in the fourth quarter.

  • The Warriors need to win the pace battle to stay in the game.
  • The Warriors' defense allows clearly fewer points (113.3 pts/game).
