After Action Report
The Wizards pulled away from the Pistons 131-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
