Matt brings up an interesting point. The Magic have lost a lot of games they should lose and, frankly, it is OK to lose. The games they could not afford to lose are the ones they had at home in late December to Utah and Philadelphia and then the home loss to Charlotte. Those were winnable games where the Magic’s effort kept them from securing the win.
Really the only “good,” surprising wins the Magic have had were the early home win against Milwaukee, the buzzer beater against Atlanta and Monday’s win over Chicago. Guessing the Magic got what the doctor ordered.
