After Action Report
In a track meet, the Magic fended off the Trail Blazers 108-100. The breakneck pace played right into Magic's hands. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Magic. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
