After Action Report
The Magic downed the Spurs 112-100. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Magic. The Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Magic bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Spurs looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
