After Action Report

The Grizzlies pulled away from the Wizards 114-96. The tempo dragged the Wizards into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Grizzlies' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
