After a slow start, the Bullets had a strong 10\u20134 record in December.[2]  In the playoffs, they faced their playoff rivals the New York Knicks, and fell in five games in the conference semi-finals;[3] the Knicks went on to win the NBA title.Following the season, the Bullets made a short move to the new Capital Centre in Landover, a suburb east of Washington, D.C., and became the Capital Bullets.[2][4] The Bullets would later play 35 regular season games in Baltimore from the 1988\u201389 through 1996\u201397 seasons.[5][6]Table of ContentsDraft picks[edit]Regular
