He admitted that the Magic are a team on the rise.
“They took it to us all night, they were the more aggressive team,” Kerr said. “It felt like they were coming downhill at us and we just didn’t have much of a response. We couldn’t get the crowd into it, couldn’t generate much momentum so I just felt like they controlled the whole game.”
