After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics pulled away from the Magic 104-93. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. The Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
