After Action Report
The Wizards demolished the Knicks 133-96. Wizards' offense had its way with the Knicks. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
