After Action Report
The Grizzlies ran roughshod over the Suns 143-105. Grizzlies' offense had its way with the Suns. Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Suns' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
