After Action Report

The Wizards blew the doors off the Bulls 96-73. The Wizards won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Wizards played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
