Match Predict – Handicap (-1.5) for Warriors
The Memphis Grizzlies have a taste of victory and a sense of confidence in their abilities. Taylor Jenkins has been a solid defensive strategist and his men have proven to be excellent fighters.
In the first round of the playoffs, both teams performed at their best. The Golden State Warriors are the more experienced team at this level, but that’s hardly the key to success. The Warriors will take to the court as favourites.
In my opinion, the more confident Warriors will win the first match.
