After Action Report
The Magic ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 116-92. The breakneck pace played right into Magic's hands. The Magic came in with something to prove after a loss; the Magic pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
