After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards demolished the Knicks 129-108. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
