After Action Report
The Suns ran roughshod over the Magic 138-108. Suns controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
