The Wizards buried the Magic 133-111. The tempo dragged the Magic into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Wizards carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
