After Action Report
The Grizzlies squeaked past the Mavericks 107-106. Grizzlies' offense had its way with the Mavericks. The Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Grizzlies bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
