In a track meet, the Magic upended the Trail Blazers 126-113. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. An upset for the books.
