The Memphis Grizzlies check in as the 5th-most aggressive offense in the NBA this year in regard to shots from behind the three-point arc.This year, the other team's starting SFs have totaled 5.8 three attempts per game (30th-highest in the NBA) against the Lakers, resulting in a good matchup.The Grizzlies have played at the 8th-quickest pace in the NBA on the road this year.The Lakers have played at the 3rd-fastest pace in the league over the last 5 games in their home stadium, which should lead to increased opportunities for the Grizzlies.The Lakers have allowed the 2nd-least offensive boards per game (9.7) in the NBA to opposing clubs over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further opportunities for scoring and assists).
