After Action Report
The Grizzlies rolled past the Lakers 121-94. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Grizzlies; Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
