After Action Report

In Orlando, the Celtics snuck past the Magic 122-117. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
