Thunder Prepared to Take Two-Game Lead on Grizzlies in First-Round

Game two of the Western Conference first-round playoff series between the Thunder and the Grizzlies tips-off on Monday night at 8:00 PM ET. The Thunder will look to secure their second win of the series and gain a large advantage before it shifts to Memphis for the middle games. We will put our money down on the Thunder to go up 2-0 on Monday night in Oklahoma City.

Thunder prepared for a fight with Memphis

No one said that this series would be an easy one for the Thunder and it was reinforced with their game one win over the Grizzlies. After going up by 25 points in the first-half, the Thunder relaxed a bit in the second and won by just 14 points. When the Grizzlies controlled the pace of the game, the Thunder looked out of sorts on the court. The Thunder will need to play like they did in the first half of game one for a win tonight.

Grizzlies not ready to go down 0-2 just yet

Memphis would love to even this series at a game apiece before it heads to their home court for the middle games. The Grizzlies will need to control the pace of the game, much like in the third quarter of game one, if they want to even this series on Monday night in Oklahoma City. Memphis will have to use their big bodies inside and pick their spots to run the floor to be successful in game two.

The more exciting playoff series this year will more than likely come from the Western Conference. One of those series pits the Thunder and Grizzlies against each other for game two tonight. We will drop 15 percent of our bankroll on the Thunder at SportsBetting.ag as we lay the line of -7 (-110) for Oklahoma City.
