After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic demolished the Wizards 115-71. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
