ANALYSIS: It's just the fourth time the Wizards have won 9 of their first 12, good enough for first in the East.

While most expected improvment from the Wizards, it is shocking to see jus thow much better they have been in the early season.

So far, exchanging Russell Westbrook for Spencer Dinwiddie and solid role players has seemed to be a fruitful decision.
