After Action Report
In New York, the Magic outlasted the Knicks 110-94. The breakneck pace played right into Magic's hands. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
