ORLANDO – The Orlando Magic won’t be in the playoffs when they get underway next week, but their finger prints are all over the mad chase for the final few postseason spots in the Eastern Conference.
After playing Indiana on Saturday, the Magic will travel to Chicago on Sunday to face the Bulls on Monday. Indiana and Chicago came into Saturday locked into a tie for the seventh and eighth slots. Sitting one game back of the final playoff spot coming into Saturday was the Miami Heat, a team that the Magic beat in three of four meetings this season.
