Pick #1 Memphis Grizzlies
Memphis at home. That would be the main reason. The other reason would be the Jazz's 2-7 road record. Memphis (14-13) is 9-4 at home so far this season, hosting Utah (13-12). The Jazz have a pretty good offense (10th in points, 15th in assists), however I think the Grizzlies defense should counter pretty well with a defense allowing 91.7 points a game (8th in NBA). These teams match up pretty well overall, however, Utah has been cold so far this month. Winning just 1 out of their last 6 games, and losing their last three games going into Memphis. Memphis hasn't exactly been hot lately, but they certainly havn't been cold either. They are 3-3 so far for February, not to mention winning thier last two home games on Wednesday and Friday to the Timberwolves and the Pacers.
I don't usually look at odds for games on SFTC, however Memphis is a 6.5 point favorite, so oddsmakers seem to like them as well. Memphis looks pretty good to me right now with them performing well at home, and Utah performing poorly on the road. Good luck whatever you do.
