Tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET, the Orlando Magic (3-4) and Boston Celtics (3-4) clash live from the TD Garden in Boston. The game can be live streamed here. Orlando fans can hear all of the action by tuning into AM 580 WDBO while Boston fans can do the same on WEEI 93.7 FM.
The Celtics are in search of their 10th straight victory over the Magic heading into tonight's game. Boston's latest win over Orlando came on Friday with a 91-89 victory where six players in a Celtics uniform reached double digits in points.
Boston road that momentum into a 111-110 victory over the defending NBA champion Miami Heat that saw the game end in a thriller as Jeff Green hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to ensure the victory.
"I have confidence in every shot I have," said Green, who scored 24 points in the victory, according to ESPN. "When it left, I had a good feeling it would go in. It went in."
After starting the 2013-14 campaign at 0-4, the Celtics have rattled off three victories in a row.
"It feels good," Green said via ESPN. "It shows that we're making strides to become what we want to become and we've just got to keep working and keep building."
Orlando will look for better ball control after Friday's loss to Boston saw the team commit a season-high 20 turnovers.
"(The turnovers) didn't help us initiate our offense," Magic coach Jacque Vaughn about Friday's loss. "You've got to give them credit for their defense."
Orlando hasn't defeated Boston since 2010, and will hope to reverse the recent trends tonight at the TD Garden while also trying to snap their 15-game road losing streak that was increased on Saturday when the team fell to the Atlanta Hawks 104-94. The Magic rallied from a 17-point deficit to take an 88-87 lead with a little under four minutes remaining, but couldn't hang on.
"There's just no room for error at that point," guard Arron Afflalo, who led the team with 15 points Saturday, said after the game per ESPN. "We just couldn't close the game off tonight."
The Celtics will look for their fourth straight win and 10th victory in a row over the Magic while Orlando will hope to snap its 15-game road losing streak when these teams collide at the TD Garden in Boston tonight.
