After Action Report
The Magic rolled past the Nuggets 120-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic came in with something to prove after a loss; the Magic bent the defense out of shape from deep. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
