After Action Report

The Wizards ran roughshod over the Knicks 120-86. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Wizards steamroller is in full effect right now; the Knicks are in a full-on tailspin. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • 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.
