Free Memphis Grizzlies vs. OKC Thunder NBA Prediction:
Fans who bought tickets to see the high-flying Grizzlies will be sorely disappointed as it looks like the entire starting lineup will sit as will most of the Thunder starters.
While the Grizzlies may be the deeper squad, I like the Thunder to win because they are much more accustomed to playing deep into their bench.
