86. Orlando Owns Boston as Isaac Returns; Defensive Inconsistency; 18-29 Magic

The story in January has been simple for the now 18-29 Magic: Play defense and you win. Don’t defend and you’re getting crushed. Keep it 115 points and below and we’re in each game. Let opponents score more than 115 and we’re cooked. The return of Jonathan Isaac may help solve this problem as we’re 1-0 with JI on the floor. We’ve won 8 of our last 11 games at home. 12-12 at home for the season. Second time in the last 12 years we’ve won the season series against the Celtics. For the 3rd time, Orlando beats the Celtics this season, each time with Boston having the best record in the NBA. We’ve handed the Celtics 23% of their losses this season. Orlando has won the season series against the two teams who were in the most recent NBA Finals (2-0 v. Warriors; 3-1 v. Celtics). Raptors-Magic trade rumors. Do we want Patrick Beverley? Can Cole Anthony become the sixth man like Tyrese Maxey has for Philadelphia? All that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language
