After Action Report
The Magic snuck past the Knicks 120-119. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Magic.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
