The Celtics D Holds Magic To Only 80 Points
Two of the big heavyweights in the Eastern Conference were in for a tough fight when the visiting Boston Celtics met up with the Orlando Magic. Boston’s stifling defense locked down the shooters of the Magic throughout the entire game. The Celtics once again showed their are dominance on the defensive end and came away with a win with a final score ending 90-80.
Ahead of the pack for Boston was Paul Pierce with 27 points on 8 for 18 field goal shooting. Kevin Garnett had 16 points and Ray Allen had 12 points, rounding out the “Big 3″ with 55 points of their total points scored. Glen “Big Baby” Davis was huge off the bench scoring 16 points and 4 rebounds. A little more than halfway through the year and Boston continues to play Championship style basketball.
