After Action Report
The Wizards squeaked past the Trail Blazers 103-98. Every possession went the Wizards way. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
