After Action Report

In Orlando, the Magic pulled away from the Grizzlies 130-120. The Grizzlies had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
