After Action Report
In Memphis, the Grizzlies snuck past the Suns 104-102. Ugly basketball, but the Grizzlies did just enough. Grizzlies' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. 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.
