Who is the real team to beat in the Eastern Conference?<\/p>\n

Analyzing whether the Celtics or Cavaliers are better built to advance to the NBA finals.<\/p>\n

The NBA playoff<\/a>\u00a0series between the Boston Celtics<\/a> and Orlando Magic<\/a> heads to Florida, with the hosts in need of a win to maintain a realistic shot at an upset.<\/p>\n

The Celtics have gained the upper hand after two games in Boston, holding a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series. The defending NBA champions put together a dominant second half in Game 1, winning 103-86<\/a>. Game 2 was a tighter affair, but the Celtics held out for a nine-point win<\/a> thanks in part to a 36-point effort from Jaylen Brown<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Much of the pre-game chatter has focused on Boston star Jayson Tatum<\/a>, who suffered a right distal radius bone bruise in Game 1. The forward missed Game 2, but the Boston Sports Journal<\/a> posted video of Tatum, who is officially questionable to play, participating in a pre-game shootaround Friday evening.<\/p>\n
