After Action Report
The Magic blew the doors off the Pistons 133-87. Magic controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Fresh off a statement win, the Magic stayed locked in; Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
