After Action Report
The Wizards pulled away from the Knicks 105-90. The Knicks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Wizards. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
