having watched memphis play against boston on tuesday, i like the memphis pick too (+8 at some places now). they are not only hardnosed and play to their potential, but they have veteran skill on that team as well, getting bobby jackson and eddie jones in the offseason. they outplayed boston severely in the first half and the celtics had to play as well as they possibly could in the second to win by one at home. i don't know much about cleveland but assume their bench isn't great....memphis crushed boston's second team. cleveland a semi-public team with lebron, whereas memphis roster is pretty ugly.
