New Orleans has lost two straight games against strong Western Conference competition and Memphis will push them once more. The Grizzlies are coming off of an easy win over Philadelphia and they have taken three of their past four games. They should be looking to dampen the offensive effort of the home team and put up a good defensive showing. As far as talent goes these two teams are evenly matched. However, Memphis has years of chemistry on their side. The key matchup is down low, in the paint. Both Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph should make life tough for the Pelicans bigs. Gasol, in particular, will be tasked with getting stops in on Anthony Davis at the basket, a proposition nobody should envy. I expect a nervous start on both sides and low scoring game. Smaller stake for this one. Good Luck.
