In Game 5 the Grizzlies beat the Clippers 103-93.

On the season the Clippers are 46-41 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 49-38 and the Grizzlies are 50-35-2 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 35-51-1.

This season the Grizzlies are 34-9 at home and the Clippers are 24-19 on the road.

The Grizzlies have won both games of this series at home and they have also covered the spread in the last 4 games of this Western Conference playoff series.

Once again PF Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol had big games in Game 5, as they combined for 46 points and 19 boards. These guys are beasts and in their house the Clippers have to figure out a way to keep these guys from having big games. [ad-6571516]

Memphis also got a combined 35 points from Mike Conley and Tayshaun Prince and if these guys shoot the rock well it will open up the paint for Gasol and Randolph.

Griffin is listed as questionable in this game and Chris Paul is battling a bruised thumb. Griffin only played 20 minutes in Game 5 scoring 4 points and grabbing 5 boards. He and the other L.A. players have to step up their game on offense, as in Game 5 Paul was the only starter that scored in double figures.

In their history the Grizzlies are 3-0 in Game 6’s, but they are 0-2 in Game 7’s.

In some betting trends for this playoff game the Clipper are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a S.U. loss, 1-5 ATS in their last 6 road games, and they have an Over record of 5-1 in their last 6 games.

The Grizzlies are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games, 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a S.U. win, and they have an Under record of 5-1 in their last 6 home games.

Jason’s Pick: I think the Clippers will bounce back tonight and play well and while they will not win they will play a close game and cover the 6.5-point spread.
