After Action Report

The Grizzlies downed the Rockets 116-98. Grizzlies' offense had its way with the Rockets. The Grizzlies ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
