After Action Report
The Hawks demolished the Wizards 121-98. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss; Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
