After Action Report

The Grizzlies survived the Hawks 106-102. Grizzlies' scorers couldn't be contained. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
