After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies ran roughshod over the Mavericks 105-80. Ugly basketball, but the Grizzlies did just enough. Fresh off a statement win, the Grizzlies stayed locked in; Grizzlies' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
