After an odd first half that did not represent their style of play all season, the Boston Celtics came out on fire in the second half, closing out their first round series against the Orlando Magic. After Orlando took Game 3 in the first game on their home court, Boston stormed back over the last two games to get a decisive opening round series victory, having to withstand through the Magic's physical play through all five games.
For the first time all year, the Celtics did not make a three-point attempt in the first half of the game, and Orlando, who has struggled all year with their shooting, struggled as well.
