After Action Report
The Grizzlies buried the Hornets 110-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
