After Action Report

In a track meet, the Wizards survived the Bulls 124-122. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
