The Orlando Magic have proven that they can beat the Toronto Raptors. They did so in Game 1. Aaron Gordon knows this and plans to replicate their initial success to extend the series.
Gordon looked back in their Game 1 win in Scotiabank Arena — something that no one saw coming. They are currently down 3-1 in the series with Game 5 slated to take place in Toronto.
For Gordon, they know that they can sneak a victory over their much stronger opponent, and that's exactly what they intend to do on Tuesday.
“We’ve shown that we can win there (in TOR) before & that’s what we’re going to do. That’s the idea – go out there and fight – definitely fight – and potentially get back here (for a Game 6). We get a win out there, then the series is up for grabs,” the Magic forward said, per John Denton of OrlandoMagic.com.
The Magic's Game 1 victory was a close one, 104-101. Guard DJ Agustin led the Magic with 25 points, six assists, as well as 4-of-5 from the 3-point country.
Aaron Gordon himself had a double-double in that game, finishing with 10 points and 10 rebounds. It was a big win for the Magic. After being the seventh seed, no one really believed that they could knock down the experienced Raptors squad.
Now on the brink of elimination, perhaps will see the best that the Magic squad has to offer.
