After Action Report
The Wizards snuck past the Pistons 99-98. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. The Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke; Pistons' outside barrage was a constant threat. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
