After Action Report
The Grizzlies pulled away from the Spurs 114-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Grizzlies; Grizzlies' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
