The game started off very slowly for the Orlando Magic as the Utah Jazz jumped out to a quick 9-0 lead. It was a preview for the rest of the night — even though the Magic finished the first quarter with a flourish.
Orlando’s last two wins were strictly a result of great ball movement, and they completely were shy of that not only to start the game but throughout the whole game. The Jazz’s quick and shifty defense forced the Magic into shot clock issues throughout the game. Orlando shot 11 times in the last three seconds of the shot clock throughout the entirety of the game.
