Orlando Magic at Boston Celtics
Play: Boston Celtics
The Celtics were steamed after letting Game 6 slip away. The Celtics turned the ball over 22 times, and Orlando turned those mistakes into 28-points. With Rajon Rondo and veterans Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, that won't happen again. The Celtics held Orlando to 36.6 percent shooting, as their defense has been great since losing Game 3. One thing that stood was Orlando's 31-13 edge in attempted free throws. THAT'S a home court edge in the playoffs, whether the refs will admit it or not. Boston felt they were attacking the basket and not getting any calls, something that won't be a problem in Game 7 at home. Orlando is a young team that has already choked in two of the games, so can they handle the pressure of a Game 7? That's not a concern for the Celtics, who are home and playing their 4th Game 7 since last April. Play the Celtics.
