After Action Report
In Seattle, the Magic squeaked past the SuperSonics 132-130. The breakneck pace played right into Magic's hands. The Magic pushed the pace until the other side broke; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
