After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies rolled past the Nets 131-107. The breakneck pace played right into Grizzlies' hands. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.

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 · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
