After a day of rest, the Wizards set off from D.C. to Atlanta.
The status of the Hawks Team in the NBA was similar to that of the Wizards Team, the difference being that Atlanta, home of the Hawks, did not have media with powerful influence. Therefore, their poor performance went unnoticed, whereas the Wizards, being from D.C., had the nationally recognized newspaper "The Washington Post". As a result, every bad game they played, every terrible trade they made, and every bust they drafted were magnified by the media in an exaggerated fashion.
