After Action Report

The Magic took care of the Mavericks 125-111. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Magic steamroller is in full effect right now. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
