After Action Report
The Magic ran roughshod over the Celtics 115-92. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Magic looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Magic · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
