Boston vs Orlando Game 1

  This was a very anticipated matchup because both teams went to the finals in the last two years, with Boston going in 2008 and Orlando getting to the finals in 2009. For much part of the game the Celtics led the game which many of the NBA fans were surprised at especially the fans in Orlando that watch their team get dominated in the first half of the game. However the Orlando Magics stormed back lead by their veteran shooting guard Vince Carter who also led the team in points by scoring twenty three points at one point of the game the magics cut the led down to single digits. The fans got into the game and the momentum was on the Orlando Magic's side however the Celtics are a veteran team that know what to do in the last minutes of the game. In the end key players made key plays to win the game for the Celtics. The Celtics ended up winning the game by four points 92-88, with shooting guard Ray Allen leading the way with twenty five points and Kevin Garnett leading the Celtics team in rebounds with eleven. However the person that lead the game in rebounds was no other than Dwight Howard with thirteen rebounds, but one thing the Magics need to work on is ball distribution their leader in assists Rashard Lewis had only two assists but one person in this series that always distributes the ball well is point guard Rondo who had a game high eight assists. In my opinion the Magics were slacking and this wasn't a win by the Celtics that I expected but maybe the Magics will realize their mistakes and take game two or maybe the momentum of the Celtics will cause them to take a two nothing lead but you never know the playoffs is where amazing happens.
