After Action Report

The Grizzlies edged the Trail Blazers 107-98. The Grizzlies won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies came in with something to prove after a loss. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
