Washington's new read-and-react system showed promise in preseason opener

We take a look at how Washington's new offense stood out against Philadelphia in their preseason opener.

Washington's long-awaited debut of their revamped offense couldn't have gone any better, nor come against a more ideal opponent in the Philadelphia 76ers. Randy Wittman finally got a chance to make good on his commitment to a more modernized offense, one that grants his players more freedom and less structure -- a complete 180 from how his teams have operated in the past.

We saw that on their very first offensive possession of the game, with Otto Porter bringing the ball up along the right side of the floor and pitching it to Bradley Beal, who was waiting for him on the wing.
