The Boston Celtics entered the game on a five game winning streak. They also defeated the Orlando Magic on Friday night but the Magic got the best of Boston this Sunday evening as they won 119-114.
A strong second half by Orlando propelled them to the victory. It was the first time during the past six games that Boston’s defense didn’t look like itself. The Magic scored 69 points during the second half after only scoring 47 during the first half.
Boston didn’t have a terrible game, offensively, but were unable to keep up in the second half.
