After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Grizzlies 125-99. Celtics' offense had its way with the Grizzlies. The Celtics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Grizzlies couldn't shake the cold spell. The Grizzlies looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 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.
