The Orlando magic so far:
- 1st in DRTG
- 3rd in REB%
- 6th in OREBs per 100 possessions
- 3rd in steals per 100 possessions
- 4th in opponent points in the paint per 100
- 7th in opponent 3PM and 3PT%
- 2nd in transition points allowed
Looking at these metrics, it’s not surprising the lakers struggled so much with them. I hope they can keep it up. It would be great to see another eastern conference contender emerge

They’ve only played 3 games, who cares? Two of their opponents were the rockets and blazers, two god awful teams and then the third are the lakers who they just lost to, I really don’t see the point in trying to find any kind of trend in a 3 game sample size; especially when they struggled to barely beat a horrible blazers team.
