After Action Report

In Washington, the 76ers ran roughshod over the Wizards 120-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the 76ers. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. It broke open after the break.
