After Action Report
The Wizards ran roughshod over the Lakers 120-98. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss; Wizards' outside barrage was a constant threat. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
