In Washington, the Hawks blew the doors off the Wizards 114-82. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Hawks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
