After Action Report
The Magic snuck past the Pistons 94-91. The Magic won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
