After Action Report

In Orlando, the Magic ran roughshod over the Knicks 125-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic came in with something to prove after a loss. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Knicks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
