After Action Report
The Raptors blew the doors off the Magic 126-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. The Raptors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Magic looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Magic's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
