After Action Report

The Magic edged the Heat 107-99. Magic's offense had its way with the Heat. The Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Heat. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
