After Action Report
In Boston, the Wizards rolled past the Celtics 123-97. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Wizards played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
