After Action Report

The Hawks demolished the Wizards 123-100. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately; Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Wizards · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
