After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic demolished the Timberwolves 117-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
