After Action Report
The Wizards buried the Nuggets 125-95. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
