After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards ran roughshod over the Rockets 118-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
