The Grizzlies snuck past the Nuggets 120-119. The Nuggets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
