After Action Report
The Wizards outlasted the Nets 139-123. Wizards controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Wizards carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
