After Action Report
The Magic outlasted the Nets 125-118. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed.
