After Action Report
The Magic outlasted the Pistons 113-103. Every possession went the Magic way. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Magic's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed.
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.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
