ORLANDO – Al Horford couldn’t help but to laugh at the first question he was asked following Saturday’s defeat to the Orlando Magic.
Horford was asked if the defeat, which featured many peaks and valleys, felt like a microcosm of his team’s season through 42 games.
Following a laugh and a raise of his eyebrows in acknowledgement of the comparison, Horford replied, “That’s pretty accurate… That’s pretty accurate.”
Indeed, it was.
At moments Saturday night, the Celtics looked like a top-flight team that would blow the Magic away and get back into the win column.
