After Action Report
The Magic buried the Cavaliers 131-91. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Magic looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Magic's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
