After Action Report
The Nets fended off the Magic 93-87. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Magic looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Magic utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
