After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies squeaked past the Nuggets 105-104. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Grizzlies bent the defense out of shape from deep; Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
