After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies knocked off the Nuggets 118-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. The Grizzlies came in with something to prove after a loss; Grizzlies' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
