Nuggets vs Grizzlies prediction
The Nuggets have the ability to mop the floor in this game, and they need to win to have a chance to get the top seed in the west. However, as I've said in the past, the Nuggets been on cruise control for a while and really don't pull away until the final five minutes. The Nuggets just blew a 23 point lead to the Spurs. The Grizzlies are fielding a G League roster these days, but they continue to play hard, and they've covered 40 games this season. The Grizzlies aren't going to roll over in this game. Give me the boatload of points.
