Williams and center Spencer Hawes, who returned from a back injury, had eight points apiece in the quarter and the Sixers steadied the ship quickly after Washington cut their lead from 25 to 16 in about two minutes in the fourth quarter.
They haven't been this good in their own building since the 2002-03 season, when they started 10-0 at home.
They took the lead for good on a Williams floater that made it 15-14 midway through the first quarter. They stretched the lead to 10 entering the second, 33-23, and it was in double digits for all but 1 1/2 minutes after that.
The Sixers shot better than 52 percent in the first half, including 75 percent in the first quarter, and took a 54-40 lead into halftime.
The Sixers have won three straight games against the Wizards after dropping five in a row. They are 8-3 on the season...Washington has lost two straight and fell to 1-10.
Rose, after sitting out against the Wizards on Wednesday with a sprained toe, scored 12 of his points in the fourth quarter, including an acrobatic layup with his back to the basket and two Celtics trying to guard him.
The Celtics were down by 20 points three times in the third quarter.
After a timeout, Rose scored Chicago's next seven points and the Bulls built their lead back up to nine with under four minutes remaining. It reached as high as 13 before the end of the game.
Rose's highlight-reel layup came as he drove the middle of the lane flanked by Garnett on his left and Celtics center Brandon Bass on his right. Cradling the ball in his right arm, he spun to face the foul line and flipped it towards the backboard, spinning the ball in on the left side.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
