After Action Report
The Grizzlies pulled away from the Jazz 85-74. The Grizzlies won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Grizzlies carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Grizzlies' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Jazz locker-room rift aren't helping. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Grizzlies · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
