After Action Report
The Wizards buried the Trail Blazers 116-74. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
