After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the Rockets 105-100. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Magic couldn't shake the cold spell; Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat.
What tipped it
- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
