After Action Report
The Grizzlies rolled past the Suns 129-94. Grizzlies' scorers couldn't be contained. Suns' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Suns' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
