After Action Report
In Memphis, the Suns buried the Grizzlies 146-100. Suns' scorers couldn't be contained. The Suns carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. The Grizzlies rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
