After Action Report

The Grizzlies squeaked past the Spurs 99-97 in overtime. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Grizzlies. Second-chance points piled up for the Grizzlies; Grizzlies' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
