After Action Report

The Wizards ran roughshod over the Hawks 112-90. Every possession went the Wizards way. The Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss; the Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · Balanced Five A starting five that covers every position with even talent finds a synergy edge.
  • Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
