After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic ran roughshod over the Hawks 120-86. Magic's offense had its way with the Hawks. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks are in a full-on tailspin. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
