It's the weekend and since I have a little time I thought I'd provide a quick write-up. These games are capped by how motivated I believe a team will be. Factors such as revenge, level of competition, how teams respond after a win or loss...etc..
Spurs/Pelicans - Both teams come into this game with 2 straight losses. The Spurs has only lost 3 in a row once all season. This tells me they take losing streaks very seriously and will be motivated to get in the win column.
Pacers/Grizzlies - Pacers got their revenge on Raptors by beating them at home last game. Now, they travel on the road to play the lowly Grizzlies. Good teams who beat a good team and now have to travel to play a bad team aren't usually as motivated.
Warriors/Celtics - It's hard to go against the Warriors, but I believe the Celtics circled this game on their schedule. This game will mean more to them to beat the defending champs on their home floor.
76ers/Nuggets - Nuggets have been beating up on the worst teams and losing to the better teams recently. This is their chance with Butler and Embiid out to do just that.
