The Grizzlies against the Sixers. Two teams right now on the outside looking in terms of true Championship contention. One team, the Memphis Grizzlies, has been plagued by the Shannon Sharpe effect, which has put a real dampener on their red-hot start to the season, while the Philly 76ers have the unfortunate task of trying to compete with Eastern Conference juggernauts like the Celtics and Bucks. Even though Memphis has puttered off in recent games, they will look to reestablish themselves coming out of the all-star break, thus making this matchup great. I still like Embiid and the Sixers in this matchup but what a game.
Memphis is a really solid team that has gone through a recent rough patch. I mean, let’s not forget that this Grizzlies team has two All-Stars on its roster in Jaren Jackson Jr and Ja Morant. Who, I will say, have both been hooping. Triple J has been averaging over three blocks per game which is just bananas defensively, and on the offensive end for this team, well, Ja is still Ja. He’s been averaging 27.3 points per game and 8.3 assists per game. It turns out, yes, it is still elite production. He is so elite, in fact, that he is 8th in the league in points per game and 5th in the league in assists per game.
However, the best player in this game is Joel Embiid, and he is in Philly, so I do give them a slight edge. Joel has been averaging 33.1 points per game, 10.2 rebounds per game, and 1.5 blocks per game. He’s second in the league in scoring and ninth in rebounding, with a serious chance at winning the league’s MVP award. Again. And this year, Joel has a legit number two player on the roster in James Harden. Harden has completely changed his role from the absolute basketball magnet he was in Houston to an elite-level ball distributor in Philly. He’s been averaging 10.8 assists per game which actually puts him at number one in the league for that stat.
This is going to be a great high-paced game, as Grizzlies games almost always are. But I do think that Philly will get the win coming out of this one. Bet on the 76ers and get $150 in bonus bets if you pick the winner with DraftKings.
