After Action Report

The Wizards buried the Bobcats 119-85. The Bobcats had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Bobcats looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
