After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic took care of the Knicks 117-106. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Magic pushed the pace until the other side broke; Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
