After Action Report
The Magic snuck past the Nets 101-96. Ugly basketball, but the Magic did just enough. Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat; the Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
