The Hawks ran into a perfect storm in D.C. — the Wizards opened 8-for-8 from three, put up 45 in the first quarter, and never cooled off in a 132-113 loss. CJ McCollum dropped 46 and Washington looked like a completely different team than the one that came in on a 14-game skid.

Dyson Daniels didn’t sugarcoat it: “They were hitting everything… we were kind of playing catch-up the whole time.”

It was easily one of Atlanta’s roughest nights of the season, but it also came in a game where the opponent couldn’t miss and the Hawks never had a real chance to settle in. Porzingis had 22, Okongwu added 20, and Jalen Johnson delivered a huge block, but nothing seemed to change the momentum.

So what’s the vibe, Hawks fans — Are you genuinely concerned about what this says about the defense? Or is this one where you just flush it and move on to Friday vs. Cleveland?
