Memphis Grizzlies +3.5 (-110) - Wednesday November 5th ‘08 10:05p
This is actually the home opener for the Sacramento Kings after beginning the year with a four-game road trip, but we are not convinced that being home will be enough for them to finally crack the win column here vs. the Memphis Grizzlies. After all, their defense is non-existent, as they are surrendering a hideous 111.8 points per game, and they have allowed each of their last two opponents to crack the 120-point mark. Also, while the Kings were a good 26-15 straight up at home last year, they only outscored their home opponents by an average of +2.4 points per game, mainly due to a defense that allowed 102.0 points per game. Furthermore, that was with a better team than this club. Now the Grizzlies are not world-beaters by any means, but they have managed to go 2-2 thus far with upset wins over the Orlando Magic and the Golden State Warriors. Yes, both of those wins came at home, but Memphis was a perfect 4-0 against the spread in four meetings with the Kings last season, with two of the covers coming here in Sacramento. In fact, the Grizzlies are 6-1 ATS in the last seven head-to-head meetings, including3-0 ATS in this building, and given the struggles of the Kings defense thus far, we look for Memphis to extend that streak.
