Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
