After Action Report
In Memphis, the Grizzlies demolished the Mavericks 125-86. Grizzlies controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Grizzlies played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Grizzlies pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
