The Orlando Magic's young mind and legs didn't know any better as they fell behind at one point by 17 in the 1st half. The Magic trailing 65-51 to OKC find a way to crawl back into the game and they stay close enough to eke out a "W" at the Buzzer to stun OKC.

The Regulators OKC get 29 points and twelve helpers from KD 6 with "Air Congo" Ibaka I-blocka adding 26 points. OKC PG Reggie Jackson added 12 points as they were the only three OKC players in double figures. It was OKC's 16 turnovers and their inability for some odd reason to get "Stops" in the 2nd half that put them in harm's way in this one.

The Magic with a youthful exuberance and W-L in 2013-14 as they are like Legos always building had a balanced attack. 18 points from SF Tobias Harris, 16 from Arron Affalo, and 14 points and five helpers from Rookie Victor Oladipo. They took care of the Orange and they shot 22 of 26 from the Stripe. Couple all of that with phenomenal play down the stretch led by Vet PG Jameer Nelson as Harris gets a Slam-Dunk Tip-In at the Horn to stun the Thunder.

In a season knowing your going to take your hits and hist the Win Column like the Average Joe hits the Lottery the Magic are slowly but surely learning. They move to 15-37 as the Thunder the only Team in the Logo with 40 W's falls to 40-12.
