After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Magic blew the doors off the Nets 130-86. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the Nets lately; Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. 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

  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nets · 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.
