After Action Report

The Magic squeaked past the Pistons 95-91. Ugly basketball, but the Magic did just enough. Magic's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; shots just aren't falling for the Pistons lately. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
