OKLAHOMA CITY – To get back into serious playoff contention, the Orlando Magic are aware that they will most likely need to put together a winning run of significance.
That could be asking a lot of an Orlando team that has struggled with consistency for months and has yet to win more than three games in a row all season. Still, the Magic – victors in their past two games – stand resolute in their belief that they are close to stringing together the kind of run that will get them right in the heart of the chase for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
