After Action Report
The Spurs outlasted the Grizzlies 109-101. The breakneck pace played right into Spurs' hands. Spurs' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Spurs pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it

- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
