After Action Report
The Wizards held off the Pacers 110-102. The tempo dragged the Pacers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
