After Action Report
The Grizzlies ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 129-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; shots just aren't falling for the Trail Blazers lately. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
