Boston Celtics vs Orlando Magic Prediction: the Celtics will find a way to break Orlando's resistance

Prediction for the NBA Boston Celtics vs Orlando Magic match which will take place on December 16th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Celtics' recent games show that Kristaps Porzingis is becoming a key player for the team. In his absence, Boston's offensive efficiency has worsened, culminating in an intra-season tournament loss to Indiana, where the Celtics scored only 112 points against one of the worst defenses of the season.

Joe Mazzulla's team played three games, winning all of them and playing excellent basketball on the other end of the floor - two wins over Cleveland (120:113 and 116:107), success in a duel with the New York Knicks (133:123).

The Magic suffered a road loss to Brooklyn (101:129) and Cleveland (111:121). But after returning home, Jamahl Mosley's team bounced back. First, Orlando crushed Detroit (123:91) and then took revenge on Cleveland (104:94).

In general, Orlando builds their game on the quality of their defense, which currently ranks third in the league with 108.9 points per game. Only the Western Conference representatives Minnesota and Houston concede less.

Orlando is a tough team, but still too young to be stable. The last two road games confirmed it - the Magic missed more than 120 of Brooklyn and Cleveland. Boston is the undisputed leader of the season, a team without weaknesses. Indeed, the Celtics will find a way to break Orlando's resistance.
