Won the victory yesterday and returned to great form now!
【Fundamental analysis】
The Memphis Grizzlies have achieved a record of 10 wins and 13 losses so far this season, ranking ninth in the Western Conference. The overall performance is quite satisfactory, but the home court advantage is slightly insufficient. They have only gained 5 wins and 6 losses in 11 home games, with a winning rate of 45.5%. Recently, they just ended their losing streak at home and won a victory, showing signs of recovery at home. The Grizzlies have performed well in the past ten games, with a record of 6 wins and 4 losses, a winning rate of 60%, and a statistical trend winning index rate of 70%. However, the frequency of big scores is only 30%, which implies that although the team’s offensive end is efficient, the rhythm control is conservative. In terms of technical statistics, the Grizzlies’ scoring average in the past ten games has increased to 116.8 points, and their field goal percentage of 46.7% and three-point shooting percentage of 34.6% are both higher than the season average. In particular, the inside scoring and rebound protection have been enhanced. However, the half-time data has exposed hidden dangers. The half-time victory rate in the past six games has been as low as 16.7%, and the net efficiency is negative 6.9 points, reflecting that the team’s slow start problem has not been solved. In the historical confrontation with the Portland Trail Blazers, the Grizzlies achieved an even balance of 5 wins and 5 losses in the past ten duels, with a handicap winning rate of only 40% and a big score probability of only 20%. Past records show that the two sides often fall into defensive battles and the total score is generally low. After adjusting the depth of the Grizzlies’ current lineup, the offensive fluidity has improved, but the defensive stability is insufficient. The average points conceded at 116.1 points per game ranks in the middle and lower reaches of the league. The net efficiency in home games is only positive 1 point. Whether they can continue their recent winning streak at home and cope with the Blazers’ strong scoring firepower has become the biggest suspense in this game. After all, although the Trail Blazers’ away performance is not outstanding, they average 119.6 points per game. The Grizzlies’ defensive system will face a severe test.
The Portland Trail Blazers have a record of 9 wins and 14 losses this season, ranking tenth in the Western Conference. They are only half a game behind the Grizzlies. The intensity of competition is self-evident. The Trail Blazers performed better on the road than at home, with 6 wins and 8 losses in 14 away games, with a winning rate of 42.9%. However, they have recently suffered a losing streak on the road, which shows that continuous fighting has a significant impact on physical energy consumption. In the past ten games, the Trail Blazers have only had 3 wins and 7 losses, with a winning rate of 30%. However, the data trend has a winning rate of 70%, and a big score probability of 50%. This shows that while the team maintains strong firepower on the offensive end, it is full of loopholes on the defensive end, averaging 120.7 points per game, ranking among the top in the league. Technical statistics show that the Trail Blazers’ field goal percentage of 43.0% and three-point shooting percentage of 32.3% in the past ten games are both lower than the season average, and their turnover control is also poor. The average 15.9 turnovers per game can easily give opponents opportunities to counterattack. However, the team’s scoring ability on the road should not be underestimated, with an average of 119.6 points per game even higher than their home performance. In terms of historical confrontations, the Trail Blazers and the Grizzlies have won five games each in the past ten meetings, but the handicap victory rate is low, with the occurrence rate of big scores being only 20%. Most of the past matches ended in low total scores. However, the offensive and defensive styles of both teams have changed this season. The Trail Blazers are more inclined to a fast pace, while the Grizzlies’ recent improvement in offensive efficiency may break the previous small score pattern. The Trail Blazers’ recent defensive performance has been ups and downs, averaging 115.7 points per game in the past six games. However, there are players on the offensive end who have scored high points in a single game. For example, although they lost the last game but scored over 100 points, whether they can use their scoring advantage to suppress the Grizzlies in this game or continue to expose their defensive weaknesses is worth in-depth observation. The Grizzlies’ home recovery is in sharp contrast with the Trail Blazers’ away toughness, adding variables to the game.
