After Action Report
The Grizzlies squeaked past the Rockets 103-98. The tempo dragged the Rockets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Grizzlies pushed the pace until the other side broke; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
