After Action Report
The Wizards blew the doors off the Knicks 129-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
