After Action Report
In a track meet, the Magic rolled past the Pistons 129-95. Magic controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Magic couldn't shake the cold spell; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
