After Action Report
The Grizzlies survived the 76ers 140-139. Grizzlies' positional fit overwhelmed the 76ers rotation. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Whispers of a 76ers locker-room rift aren't helping.
