After Action Report

The Wizards ran roughshod over the Bulls 129-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. The Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
