Celtics' balance and atonement makes for one of the greatest halves in team history

Boston -- The Celtics enter intermission with an 80-57 lead over the Orlando Magic. That matches the fifth-most points they've scored in a half, per StatMuse.

Everyone on the team who has played has scored already except for Baylor Scheierman. That includes Neemias Queta, who departed after logging fewer than six minutes. Boston's starting center sprained his left ankle after sprinting to contest an Anthony Black dunk attempt.

The Celtics' offensive explosion comes two days after a lackluster effort in a 113-105 loss to the Brooklyn Nets on this same parquet.
