After Action Report
The Magic pulled away from the Trail Blazers 105-87. The Magic won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat; the Trail Blazers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
