After Action Report
In Memphis, the Grizzlies squeaked past the Mavericks 131-128. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Grizzlies' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
