After Action Report

The Grizzlies edged the Trail Blazers 121-114. The breakneck pace played right into Grizzlies' hands. The Grizzlies pushed the pace until the other side broke; Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Trail Blazers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
