After Action Report

The Kings ran roughshod over the Wizards 119-99. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings came in with something to prove after a loss; the Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
