The under is 9-3 in the last 12 meetings.
The Atlanta Hawks are on the end of a back to back and have been rough both straight up and against the spread on the road this season where they've lost five straight and lose by an average of 13.4 points. The Memphis Grizzlies are winning their last five games by an average of 12.8 points and they need all the wins they can get if they're going to truly lockup a playoff spot in the west. The Grizzlies are 18-13 against the spread at home and just beat the breaks off the Hawks a few days ago, scoring 127 points on 50 percent shooting. I'll lay the reasonable chalk with the Grizzlies at home.
