After Action Report
The Magic snuck past the SuperSonics 104-101. The Magic won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Magic played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
