After Action Report
The Warriors rolled past the Wizards 126-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. The Warriors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Warriors' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Wizards locker-room rift aren't helping. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Warriors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
