Grizzlies at home vs a new looking Knicks team and only favored by 5? I'll take it all day. The Knicks SEEMED like a great team in the preseason with the new pieces, but they haven't played a high scoring team like the Grizz, who have a fully healthy young core that got the taste of a deep playoff run and should hit the ground running in Game 1 in front of one of the most rowdy stadiums in the NBA. I don't see anyone of the gaurds containing the allotment of weapons the the Grizzlies have on the perimeter, and I don't see the Knicks scoring a ton of points with the roster still needing to be improved.

Official Play: Grizzlies -5

Side Bet: Jalen Brunson over 4.5 Assists
