After Action Report
The Magic buried the Nuggets 114-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
