Washington DC- For those of you who were hoping the good brand of basketball the Cleveland Cavaliers played last night traveled with them to DC, overt your eyes. The Washington Wizards won their third straight Wednesday night, defeating the Cavaliers 119-95.
The Cavaliers allowed the Wizards to score an opponent season high in the first quarter (41) and the battle was uphill from there. Cleveland knew coming into the game that Washington was a team that usually had strong first halves, but the Wizards normally strike in the second. Although the Wizards lead was only 12 after one, the second quarter wasn’t much better for the Cavs.
