After Action Report
The Bobcats shocked the Wizards 106-95. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Bobcats lately; Bobcats' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Wizards · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.

- Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
