After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Grizzlies edged the Spurs 93-84. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies came in with something to prove after a loss; Grizzlies' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Grizzlies · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
