After Action Report

The Magic ran roughshod over the Heat 125-97. The Heat had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
