After Action Report

The Grizzlies ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 124-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
