Celtics-Magic: Boston Keeps on Rolling

Chalk up another double-digit win for the best team in green. 

The Celtics continue to roll after taking out the Magic 107-88 with one of their patented third-quarter runs. 

Granted, Orlando was missing starters Jameer Nelson (hip flexor) and Michael Pietrus (thumb).  However, the Magic have been road warriors this year, and were able beat the Pacers on Saturday night without either of the aforementioned duo.

Once again, Rondo paced the Celtics with 16 points and 12 assists.  Since the Knicks game three weeks ago, Rajon has consistently played solid basketball.

Devin Harris and Jose Calderon should prevent him from making the All-Star team this year, but if he can continue to improve year after year, he should make the annual trip to the mid-winter classic.

Speaking of All-Stars, Pierce came back after a foul-laden first half to really lift the team on his back in the second half, finishing with 24 points in 13 shots from the floor along with 10 free throws.  

The bench continues to be productive in scoring 23 points in limited action.  If you listen carefully, you can hear everyone saying, "James who?"

Three more entertaining games this week, as the Celtics have revenge on their minds with Indiana twice and the young, up-and-coming Blazers.
