After Action Report

The Magic knocked off the Celtics 118-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
