After Action Report

The Grizzlies held off the Clippers 105-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Clippers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
