After Action Report
The Spurs fended off the Grizzlies 116-109. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep; Grizzlies' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Grizzlies locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
