After Action Report
In Orlando, the Nets survived the Magic 94-93. The Nets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Nets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Magic are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
