After Action Report
The Magic edged the Heat 121-112. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Magic came in with something to prove after a loss; Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
