In Memphis, the Grizzlies rolled past the Suns 102-77. Grizzlies' scorers couldn't be contained. The Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Grizzlies pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
