After Action Report
In Houston, the Magic rolled past the Rockets 121-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
