After Action Report

In Orlando, the Magic ran roughshod over the Pistons 115-94. The better team simply showed up tonight. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pistons · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
