Boston 92, Orlando 79: Dreadful second half sinks Magic

The basket was the size of the ocean for the Orlando Magic in the fourth quarter of their last contest in Minnesota Monday night.

In the third quarter Wednesday, that ocean had dried up to a puddle.

The Boston Celtics, who blew a double-digit lead in the fourth quarter of their last contest against Chicago Monday, ran away from Orlando in the second half - cruising to a 92-79 victory.

It’s not like the Celtics lit the world on fire Wednesday night, but they were the beneficiaries of a ten point Orlando third quarter (the second and fourth quarter offensive outputs weren’t much better).
