After Action Report
In Orlando, the Grizzlies squeaked past the Magic 114-111. The Grizzlies won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
