After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards blew the doors off the Nets 125-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Wizards; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
