After Action Report

In a track meet, the Magic downed the Grizzlies 112-96. The breakneck pace played right into Magic's hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Magic; the Magic pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
