The Grizzlies really need to take advantage of when they play the East teams if they want to get into the playoffs. They have done this so far. Now they play the Bulls a team that has achieved wins against the leagues not so good teams. Memphis I think is above that and I think they aren't getting enough credit here.

Grizzlies are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 vs. the East, and they are 15-6 ATS in their last 21 as an under dog. They may be getting this line because they are on 0 days rest where they are 7-8 ATS and -6.8 ppg. A closer look reveals they had some tough road games on 0 days rest which have inflated these stats including @ Houston, @ Utah (twice) @ Cleveland as well all big losses. I think the Grizzlies come ready to play the Bulls who are fresh on 2 days rest, but have really not played that great at -0.1ppg. Rose/Deng/ and Miller are all probable but clearly not 100% and the Bulls have Dallas, Utah and Orlando up next.
