After Action Report
The Grizzlies buried the Spurs 119-86. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Grizzlies ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
