The schedule and the injury report do Wizards no favors vs. Celtics

The Celtics' Jayson Tatum heard the “MVP!” inside Capital One Arena while scoring 30 points on 8-for-17 shooting. After this weekend, the Washington Wizards might want to have a chat with the NBA’s schedule makers. To make a team play the Chicago Bulls and Boston Celtics back-to-back, at the end of a week-long road trip, over St. Patrick’s Day weekend — a holiday perhaps celebrated more in Chicago and Boston than any other major U.S. city — felt a bit beyond the pale.

In all, the Celtics went 24-for-50 from the three-point line, just four off the Wizards’ franchise record for three-pointers made by an opponentWashington had no means for recourse. Overmatched and undersized, the Wizards were reluctant to venture into the paint and instead spent too much of the first half trying to make up for lost ground from beyond the arc, where shots wouldn’t fall. They shot 10-for-34 from the three-point line.
