After Action Report
The Magic took care of the Pistons 119-104. Magic's offense had its way with the Pistons. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
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.
