After Action Report

In Washington, the Wizards rolled past the Bulls 121-95. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Wizards played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
