After Action Report
The Magic outlasted the Bulls 125-111. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Magic pushed the pace until the other side broke. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
