After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards squeaked past the Nets 105-104. The Nets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Wizards. The Wizards ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; shots just aren't falling for the Nets lately. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
