After Action Report
The Grizzlies downed the Celtics 117-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
