You know you’re watching a bad team when they roll out to a 16-point lead in the first half while creating not even an inkling that they were in control of the game. The Wizards checked both boxes (16-point lead, no inkling), and then the Phoenix Suns stayed in contact throughout the third period, before dominating the fourth to win.
For the Wizards, two players were great — Tyus Jones and Daniel Gafford. They got little from everyone else.
The team’s defense was okay, though it seemed like Phoenix’s offensive struggles were mostly on Phoenix.
