After Action Report
The Magic pulled away from the Rockets 126-108. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
