After Action Report
The Magic blew the doors off the Knicks 130-104. Magic torched the Knicks on the offensive end. The Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Magic's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
