After Action Report
The Magic outlasted the Cavaliers 102-87. Ugly basketball, but the Magic did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Magic; the Magic are in a full-on tailspin. Tonight's Cavaliers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
