After Action Report

In Boston, the Celtics rolled past the Magic 105-76. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. The Celtics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • 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 · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
