After Action Report

The Grizzlies pulled away from the Rockets 118-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
