Orlando Magic's biggest problem is giving away too many possessions
The Orlando Magic started off Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics about as well as they could, racing behind hot shooting to a 13-4 lead.
Then it started to fall apart, in a meltdown reminiscent of Wednesday's 30-point loss to the Toronto Raptors. Seven turnovers in the final 8:17 of the quarter and five offensive rebounds. It added up, putting the Magic on their back foot.
They made six 3-pointers and 53.3 percent of those shots in the opening quarter. But instead of controlling the game and opening a big lead that they could manage, the Magic's turnovers and poor rebounding left them down by one.
