#2 VS #7 Previous Games: Magic 116 - Celtics 102 Magic 98 - Celtics 90 Magic 102 - Celtics 72 Magic 101 - Celtics 69KEY STATS:Points Per Game: - 99.4 - 100.3 Points Allowed Per Game: - 97.0 - 99.2 Rebounds Per Game: - 50.5 - 50.3 Field Goal Percentage: - .439 - .442 Opponets Field Goal Percentage: - .443 - .447 : Home Record - 26 - 15 --- Away Record - 20 - 21
: Home Record - 25 - 16 --- Away Record - 18 - 23KEY PLAYERS:: The Boston Celtics made tons of key moves this off-season and it's payed off for the #2 in the East, but they've drawn a team that just owns them. Pierce is the main scoring threat on this team still and he's going to need to step it up and score big time in this series. Pierce has been doing a decent job at rebounding and such as well this year and that's going to need to continue. This is an extremely tough match-up for the Celtics, but Pierce is a big key to there success. If he can avg. 30 points per game the Celtics will be tough to beat. : The Magic have Dwight Howard and Rashard Lewis and you pretty much know what there going to give you. It all rests in the hands of this young man Jameer Nelson. Jameer just flat out had a great season avg'ing close to 19 a game, with 6 rebounds, and 8 assists. He's the big key , if he can distribute the ball to Lewis and Howard, score his 18-20 a game, and doing some work on the glass the Celtics have no match for him. Nelson has dominated against the Celtics this year, so the Celtics need to step it up on this guy. SERIES PREDICTION: The Magic haven't lost yet, we say Magic take this series 4 - 1.[/center]
