After Action Report
The Grizzlies squeaked past the Warriors 101-97. Ugly basketball, but the Grizzlies did just enough. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
