After Action Report

The Nets demolished the Grizzlies 114-91. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Grizzlies looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Grizzlies' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Grizzlies · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
