Orlando Magic Grades: Toronto Raptors 121, Orlando Magic 109
The Orlando Magic got a playoff preview and found their defense wanting as the Toronto Raptors drained 3s and tore apart the Magic.
The Orlando Magic were humming along smoothly. Their defense was active but not precise, but the offense was doing enough. A tipped pass or a block fed the team’s fast break and the Magic’s lead grew.
This was not sustainable. Everyone could feel it with every time Danny Green got free for a 3-pointer or every time Aaron Gordon jumped on a Kawhi Leonard pump fake.
The Magic were doing good things. But not good enough. Not against a good Toronto Raptors team.
