With the Magic's last victory, they are ensured a better road record than home record. This almost never happens. In fact, the NBA rate for this is below 1%.
Not sure if this is a good thing or not, but an interesting statistical event.
To my knowledge, the Magic's rare feat comes with the highest winning percentage. Not sure, but I think so.

rofl I think each team has jinxed each either. If anything the raptors have more of a jinx because of sheer numbers. The players will decide the series, not some jinx

I'd like to see the playoff runs (if they made it) of other teams who have done this.
