Things are going to have to change quickly if the Memphis Grizzlies hope to steal home-court advantage away from the San Antonio Spurs in their best-of-seven Western Conference first-round playoff series that continues Monday at the AT&T Center.
Mike Conley led the Grizzlies, the seventh seed in the Western Conference, with 24 points.
According to oddsmakers at Bovada.lv, the Spurs are the clear favorite in tonight's game, as they are getting odds of -11 points against the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies need more than Marc Gasol and Conley to beat San Antonio, but Randolph was only able to deliver six points and three rebounds with 3-of-13 shooting in Game 1.
San Antonio led for all but 13 seconds in winning its 10th consecutive postseason game over Memphis.

"We have to do a better job on Marc and not let him get into a rhythm so early". "We've got to be a little more conscious when we drive to be patient and kick it and make them work so we get multiple passes in every possession". "I know Pop's (Spurs coach Gregg Popovich) got pedigree and I'm a young rookie, but they're not going to rook us". Leonard shot a ideal 19-19 from the free throw line compared to the Grizzlies who shot just 15 free throws overall as a team the entire game. Vince Carter was assessed a technical foul in the first half after attempting to head-butt Kyle Anderson.
Conley led Memphis with 14 points, one more than he had total in the first game of the series. He became the fifth player since 2006 to score 1,000 points in his first 46 playoff games, joining Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, James Harden and Russell Westbrook.
"I just try to do something on the defensive end", Leonard said.
Memphis forward Tony Allen remains out with a right calf injury, and Fizdale is still unsure if Allen will return in the opening round. "Not just me, but everybody".
