Late game execution was bad and should definitely be discussed......wiith Gilbert Arenas out, the Wizards simply do not have a ball-handling scorer who creates for others with action/penetration.

However, in terms of last night's game alone, the Atlanta offensive rebounds and second chance points absolutely killed the Wizards (by my last count, the Hawks had 22 in each category). Limit those, and the game doesn't come down to one possession.
