After Action Report
The Magic downed the Trail Blazers 112-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic came in with something to prove after a loss; Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
