After Action Report
The Warriors survived the Magic 112-109. The Magic had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Magic bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Warriors bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Warriors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
