There were brief moments where it looked like the Orlando Magic were ready to fight for this one. As the Dallas Mavericks zoomed past them in the third quarter after the Orlando Magic built a five-point halftime lead, it seemed the Magic were again going to capitulate.
Moments are not enough to win a game. That brief glimpse with Aaron Gordon fighting hard for an offensive rebound before throwing down a monstrous one-handed slam or Evan Fournier fighting off Dwight Powell to box out for a rebound (drawing a foul in the process)?
