After Action Report

The Magic snuck past the Nets 128-126 in overtime. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions. 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 · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
