After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards stunned the Warriors 116-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. An upset for the books.
