After Action Report
The Knicks shocked the Magic 125-97. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Magic. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
