5 things learned from the Grizzlies low-scoring win over Jazz
No. 2: The Grizzlies can win in multiple ways
Thatâs a way to put it.
So far this season, the Grizzlies have proved they can win with offense (i.e. Kings and home Warriors game) or with their âgrit ân grindâ defense (i.e. Dallas and this game).
The main key to their newfound range is that theyâve maintained their identity which is crucial for a veteran team that canât run a whole lot.
In addition, they can close games with just about anyone around Gasol and Conley. They could have either Zach Randolph or JaMychal Green at the 4 position and a wing combination of Tony Allen, James Ennis, Troy Daniels and, soon, Chandler Parsons.
Due to injuries, rotational players received more minutes than usual. That, in turn, makes them prepared for crunch-time.
Credit to Fizdale for adding an interesting dimension to this team and for having everyone prepared for key minutes.
