After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Grizzlies 121-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep; Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
