After Action Report
The Magic rolled past the Mavericks 124-85. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Magic played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Magic bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Magic · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
