After Action Report

In Orlando, the Grizzlies rolled past the Magic 120-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. The Grizzlies carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Grizzlies · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
