After Action Report
The Magic ran roughshod over the Bulls 118-89. The Bulls had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Magic's old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
