After Action Report
The Wizards blew the doors off the Warriors 125-100. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; the Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Warriors locker-room rift aren't helping. Warriors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
