After Action Report

In a track meet, the Wizards buried the Pistons 131-106. Wizards torched the Pistons on the offensive end. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
