NBA Playoffs 2018-19: 3 Talking points from NBA Playoffs - April 13th Steph Curry takes the Warriors to a 17 Point Win

#2 Constant ties and lead changes in the even matchup between Magic and the Raptors

Orlando Magic work their magic to beat the higher ranked Toronto Raptors

This game was a series of ups and downs. There were 13 lead changes and 12 ties with seven ties in the fourth. In the 3.4 seconds DJ Augustin made a three pointer, breaking the tie and beating the home team 104 -101 for game one.

This came as a surprise to most as Orlando Magic were the seventh seed in the East whereas the Raptors have been second and performing constantly well all season. Kawhi Leonard scored four points in a row to bring thr Raptors to 101-99 with a little mire than a minute left and it seemes impossible for Magic even after Marc Gasol's open 3-pointer rimmed out.

The time outs really seemed to be markers for change in the direction of the game and Magic seemed to know exactly when not to call them.
