After Action Report
The Grizzlies buried the Rockets 123-95. The Grizzlies got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Grizzlies ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
