After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic edged the Heat 110-103. Magic's scorers couldn't be contained. The Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
