The Boston Celtics have shown their superiority in this series by defeating the Orlando Magic in the first two games, with the second by a score of 100-109 even without their best player, Jayson Tatum.

Boston Celtics vs Orlando Magic: Celtics -4

Not even Tatum’s absence stopped the Celtics in Game 2, as Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis led the team to victory with 36 and 20 points, respectively. The Celtics’ defense was also very solid, limiting the Magic to 100 points or less for the fourth consecutive game. Even though they will be at home, the Magic are unlikely to be able to overcome the Celtics in any aspect, so we expect Boston to take the victory in this game as well.

Boston Celtics vs Orlando Magic: Under 199

While the Celtics may still have good offensive production without Tatum, his impact on the team is important, especially away from home, so the Magic will use all their energy to stop them and at least win one game in this series. For their part, the Celtics know that they will have to defend greatly in order not to depend on the attack, and against the Magic they have already shown that they can do it. Seven of the last ten games between these teams covered the Under, so we expect this game to have few points.

Boston Celtics vs Orlando Magic Prediction

Even without Tatum, the Celtics are a much better team than the Magic, so they should be able to take the win despite being away from home, and although the home team will try to avoid a loss here with all their might, the most they could do is limit Boston’s points.
