After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Grizzlies rolled past the Hawks 139-112. The breakneck pace played right into Grizzlies' hands. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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 · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
