After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies survived the Jazz 127-122. The breakneck pace played right into Grizzlies' hands. The Grizzlies played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Grizzlies bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
