After Action Report
The Grizzlies ran roughshod over the Rockets 140-107. Grizzlies torched the Rockets on the offensive end. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Grizzlies' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
