After Action Report

In Washington, the Wizards rolled past the Hawks 99-72. Wizards' offense had its way with the Hawks. The Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
