After Action Report

The Wizards demolished the Bulls 134-80. The Bulls had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
