Booooj's NBA game of the week.
25 Unit NBA Game of the Week
Minnesota Timberwolves (8-25) vs. Memphis Grizzlies (11-23)
25 Units on Memphis (-4) over Minnesota
Minnesota comes into this game seeking their first 3 game winning streak in nearly two years. The Wolves are playing their best ball of the season since firing coach Randy Wittman, but that really doesn’t say much. Memphis hasn’t exactly been very impressive this season either, although they are coming off of their most impressive game of the season, a 20 point beat down of the Dallas Mavericks two nights ago. The Grizzlies have some young talent on their roster, but just haven’t been able to play well consistently. Rookie OJ Mayo is leading the team in scoring and has lived up to expectations. Rudy Gay has also shown flashes of brilliance at times. Minnesota has some talent of their own with Randy Foye, Al Jefferson, and rookie Kevin Love, but lack the depth to compete in the NBA on a nightly basis. Memphis has been decent at home with a 9-10 record, while Minnesota has been awful on the road at 4-13. Look for Memphis to follow up Sundays performance with another impressive victory over a team they should handle. Memphis by 10-14.
