After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic fended off the Heat 106-100. Magic's offense had its way with the Heat. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat are in a full-on tailspin. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
