The Magic blew the doors off the Knicks 139-97. Magic torched the Knicks on the offensive end. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.
