After Action Report
The Suns demolished the Magic 95-70. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Suns played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Suns' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Magic looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Magic rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Suns · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
