After Action Report

In Chicago, the Wizards downed the Bulls 124-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. The Wizards ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Bulls are in a full-on tailspin. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Wizards · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
