After Action Report
In Orlando, the Pacers survived the Magic 111-110. The better team simply showed up tonight. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pacers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. The Magic rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
