A bad first quarter was the undoing of the Cavs on Thursday night, as they fell to the Orlando Magic on the road by a final of 120-91.
The Cavs were outscored 36-20 in the first, and 25-21 in the second as they trailed by 20 at the half, and by 30 at one point in the third quarter.
The formula was pretty simple for Orlando to improve to 31-38 on the season, hit a bunch of early shots from the field to build a lead, and then play solid defense the rest of the way to not allow the Cavs any shot to get back in the game.
