After Action Report
The Wizards edged the Knicks 104-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss; Wizards' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Knicks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
