At the risk of sounding like the grumpier version of Statler and Waldorf, the Wizards didn’t impress me much in their 93-79 opening-night win over the Toronto Raptors. That’s not to say I didn’t see anything good — I did.
It’s just that even when they were flirting with a 30-point lead in the third quarter, I had the nagging feeling that the big lead was more about the Raptors missing everything from everywhere than it was the Wizards playing outstanding basketball.
What did I like?
- Montrezl Harrell and Daniel Gafford did some work inside.
