After Action Report
The Grizzlies ran roughshod over the Nuggets 140-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Grizzlies · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
