Memphis completely outclassed the experienced and very good Spurs at home and I can see them take care of business here as well.<\/p>\n<p>Lionel Hollins\u2019 team is not looking like an eighth seed at all. These guys are extremely confident and seemingly have\u00a0not missed a beat without Rudy Gay. Zach Randolph is a beast, Mike Conley, Jr. has become a quality point guard, Marc Gasol is playing better than Pau Gasol and all in all the Grizz at home should win this game and this price is cheap enough to therefore expect a cover.<\/p>\n<p>I do think that\u00a0Oklahoma City could and probably should win this series in the end as they have the experience from last season but in this first game back in Elvis\u2019 hometown I will roll with the\u00a0growing Grizz and expect the crowd\u00a0to\u00a0go ballistic and get rewarded with a\u00a0win and cover.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?PageID=140\">Top expert pick<\/a> on this game: Memphis from Matt Rivers<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information: <\/strong>A winning Friday as the 400,000 star\u00a0Mets came through. That\u2019s now 39 winning days compared to only 23 losing ones and an overall boatload of profit. Two more plays and at least 700,000 stars of profit as I fly\u00a0over the 7 million mark. Another 400,000 star is here in this game between the Heat and Celtics along with a 300,000 star\u00a0involving the Braves and Phillies. That Crookie is about to get smacked around one more time.
