No wand required as Magic erase 21-point deficit to top Cavs; three takeaways

3. And if you thought it couldn’t get any worse…

… it did. In the fourth quarter, the Cavs scored a measly nine points compared to 24 for the Magic.

Down the stretch, Orlando played harder on both ends of the floor, handing the Cavs another embarrassing loss that could have and should have been avoided.

In the second half, it was like the Cavs forgot all basic fundamentals of the game. How to move the ball, how to play with pace, how to play help defense, and most importantly, how to act like they even had any desire to be on the court.

There isn’t much left to say at this point, other than if this team looks identical 48 hours from now, serious questions will be raised about their likelihood for any kind of meaningful success this year.
