After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Magic 113-109. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' stars took over and bent the game to their will; the Celtics steamroller is in full effect right now. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
