After Action Report

The Wizards ran roughshod over the Nuggets 131-102. Wizards torched the Nuggets on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
