After Action Report

The Grizzlies buried the Kings 107-84. Every possession went the Grizzlies way. The Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Grizzlies answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
