After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the Magic 102-99. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Celtics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Magic looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Survive-and-advance type win.

- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
