After Action Report
The Grizzlies took care of the Pistons 100-85. The Grizzlies won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Grizzlies · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
