After Action Report
The Wizards rolled past the Lakers 128-94. Wizards torched the Lakers on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
