After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies took care of the Jazz 110-100. Every possession went the Grizzlies way. The Grizzlies couldn't shake the cold spell; Grizzlies' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Jazz looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Jazz · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
