After Action Report
The Magic ran roughshod over the Heat 125-85. Magic torched the Heat on the offensive end. Heat's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
