CRISIS: Magic's Defense CRUMBLES as 76ers DOMINATE | Can Magic FIND their identity again?

The Orlando Magic's defensive woes finally broke as the Philadelphia 76ers torched the Magic in a 136-124 victory. Orlando's identity is built on its defense. And without being able to rely on it, the team is struggling to find its way early in the season.

All of the big problems the Magic have are completely in their control -- whether it is the defense, the turnovers or the missed free throws. That is the frustrating part for the group. They clearly have the talent and the ability to be the team they expected to be.

Getting all the pieces together has been a longer and more frustrating process than they imagined.
