After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies squeaked past the Mavericks 109-105. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Shots just aren't falling for the Grizzlies lately; Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
