After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Magic 124-98. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Magic rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
