After Action Report

The Lakers held off the Grizzlies 116-109. Lakers torched the Grizzlies on the offensive end. Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Grizzlies' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Grizzlies locker-room rift aren't helping. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
