Boston Celtics up 2-0 on the Orlando Magic

Now I am just as excited about the celtics as pretty much every fan is. But, I am also not going to expect the Celtics to blow by the Magic in four straight games. If it does happen I will be thrilled, trust me ,nothing would make me more happy than a sweep. The magic are just too talented to nbot atleast win one game. Their main problem is they rely heavily on their 3-point shooting and their jump shot in general and they are just not making their shots. The Celtics defense is definitely playing a role in disrupting their offense. Since the 2007-2008 season the celtics defense has been the best it has been in a really long time. Granted yes this past regular season they struggled mightily defensively. But for some nearly unexplainable reason a switch was turned on and they are playing defense like they did in the championship season. not only their defense but their overall game has improved tremendously. In order for the celtics to get to the finals and win it they need to maintain their current level of play and they cannot keep givong up the lead late in games. If the Celtics do get to the finals their opponent will most likely be the Lakers although I hope Phoenix will put up some type of opposition. All in all I look forward to game 3 and hope the three day wait will not kill the celtics momentum.
