After Action Report

The Grizzlies rolled past the Bobcats 126-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Grizzlies · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
