There would be no comeback magic from the Brooklyn Nets in their second visit to Amway Center this season, as the Orlando Magic pulled away from the sloppy, sluggish Nets in the second half Saturday night for a 102-89 victory.
The win allowed the Magic (22-31) to avoid a season sweep at the hands of the Nets (28-26), who had come back from a 21-point deficit to win at Orlando on Jan. 18.
It is the first time Brooklyn has lost consecutive games in more than a month, since dropping back-to-back road games at Charlotte and Milwaukee on Dec.
