1-2 (-1.07)
Memphis -2.5 (1.96)
League: 8-22-1 (Av. loss 6.0) home 4- dog, 1 day rest off 10+ ats loss as home 5+ dog. [Orl]
5-18 (Av.loss 7.4) if total 180+
2-10 (Av. loss 10.0) if opp is off an ats loss.
Memphis have won 5 of the last 6 meetings between the teams, inc. 2 of last 3 @ Orlando, both as dogs, and coming off a horrible 34.1% shooting performance v. Miami, they will appreciate the lack of (esp. interior) defense from Orlando.
Memphis and me both will be upset if they lose this one! :cursin:
New York -4 (1.93)
League: 7-16-1 (Av. loss 3.6) away 4- dog, 1 day off a 10- ats win as away 4- fav. [Wash]
3-11 (Av. loss 5.4) if opp is off an ats loss.
1-8 (Av. loss 6.4) if opp is off an away ats loss.
NY shot just 18/33 FT's (while Boston shot 35/47!!! Home town refs anyone?! ), where out-rebounded 57-41 and still made it to OT in Boston.
Brown will have spent the last 2 days drilling the importance of team disipline, which could well make all the difference against Washington who are a poor rebounding team themselves.
Larry Brown's first official 'home' game, full house, Friday night...Tough to see the 'Knicks dropping this one.
