After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns buried the Magic 115-94. The better team simply showed up tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Suns stayed locked in; Suns' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Magic looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
