After Action Report
In New York, the Wizards took care of the Knicks 114-104. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. The Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Knicks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
