After Action Report
The Magic survived the Knicks 119-117. Magic controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Magic pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
