After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the Bulls 124-120. Magic's positional fit overwhelmed the Bulls rotation. The Magic came in with something to prove after a loss; Magic's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
