After Action Report
The Magic ran roughshod over the Pacers 128-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
