After Action Report
The Magic snuck past the Cavaliers 108-107. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Magic bent the defense out of shape from deep. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
