Here is a brief look at the end of the @OrlandoMagic practice. The team seemed loose. But after talking to Paolo Banchero and Jalen Suggs they are dialed in and ready to counter a @DetroitPistons answer to game one.

The @OrlandoMagic won their first road playoff game under Jamahl Mosley. His message was "act like you've been there before" when he came off the floor. I asked him about that post game:

INSTANT REACTION: "When we understand what everybody is trying to accomplish on both sides of the ball, I think this team can be pretty good." This is the first time under Jamahl Mosley the #Magic has had a series lead in the postseason.

"We showed today we belong." - Franz Wagner This is the first road playoff win for the #Magic under Jamahl Mosley and the first playoff series lead they've held under his leadership. Detroit has now lost 11 straight home playoff games. #EverybodyIn #NBAPlayoffs

"Whatever story you told yourself during the regular season, that story is done. Now it's the playoffs" - Jamahl Mosley #MakeItMagic #EverybodyIn

FINAL: #Magic 112, #Pistons 101 Orlando wins their first road playoff game under Jamahl Mosley and do it in wire-to-wire fashion Magic lead the best of seven series 1-0 Game 2 is Wednesday night

We made it. @WESH is in the Motor City. After our hit, @kristenmlago and I had to go to a Detroit staple, Buddy’s Pizza. The pizza tastes like the way the @OrlandoMagic played on Friday, amazing!

The #Magic have yet to win a road playoff game under head coach Jamahl Mosely... Tonight they look to break that streak against the best team in the East. Here's what Jalen Suggs and Wendell Carter Jr. had to say about their keys to winning on the road. @WESH
