After Action Report
The Magic rolled past the Cavaliers 122-96. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Magic; the Magic came in with something to prove after a loss. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
