After Action Report
The Magic survived the Nets 119-115. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Nets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
