After Action Report
In a track meet, the Wizards pulled away from the Heat 118-107. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Wizards. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
