After Action Report
In a track meet, the Grizzlies rolled past the Celtics 127-99. The breakneck pace played right into Grizzlies' hands. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Grizzlies · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
