Magic overcome rough officiating to close out the home win over Brooklyn

Every two weeks the Magic establish a new normal, and right now the modus operandi for the Magic is “Score, score, score...and let the other team do the same.” Still, they came out on top tonight, despite some questionable reffing decisions, especially in the third quarter, taking the 118-111 win at home. Nikola Vucevic led the way with 21 points in his return from a back injury, and Evan Fournier added 21 himself, most of that coming in the crucial fourth quarter. Brook Lopez led the Brooklyn Nets with 22 points, facilitating much of their offense from the post where he dominated Orlando’s big men all night.
