After Action Report
The Wizards survived the Cavaliers 122-119. The Cavaliers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Cavaliers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Tonight's Cavaliers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
