After Action Report
In a track meet, the Wizards ran roughshod over the Pacers 139-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
