After Action Report
The Magic handled the Knicks 122-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Magic steamroller is in full effect right now. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. The Magic rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
