After Action Report
The Wizards fended off the Nets 109-103. Wizards' scorers couldn't be contained. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
