Magic falls again to Celtics, 95-92
The Orlando Magic kept it close until the end this time but came up short again in a 95-92 loss to the Boston Celtics.
The loss drops the Magic behind the Celtics 2-0 in the series as it shifts back to Boston for Games 3 and 4.
It’s been a hard dose of reality for the Magic after they were able to sweep away their opponents in their first two playoff series.
The Celtics have come in hot and with a defensive strategy that has given the Magic fits.
With the Celtics guarding Dwight Howard with just one player, it’s up to the center to beat his defender and consistently score if the Magic have any hopes of getting back in the series.
