After Action Report

The Magic handled the Bobcats 124-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Magic bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Magic · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
