The Boston Celtics defeated the Orlando Magic 92-83 at Amway Center on Friday in a game that showed the differing identity between one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference and one of the worst. The Celtics displayed their defensive prowess and the Magic displayed their ineptitude.
Another rough contest for the Magic, who shot just 39.5 percent from the field and 5 for 28 from behind the arc. Orlando found a way to stay within arm’s reach of Boston, who also couldn’t hit their shots.
One thing Orlando should hang its hat on is the defense.
