After Action Report
The Grizzlies outlasted the Raptors 101-91. Grizzlies' offense had its way with the Raptors. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Raptors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
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.
- Grizzlies · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
