Halftime...

The Celtics, behind a 3-pointer drained by Brian Scalabrine and a steal and driving layup by Eddie House, cut the Orlando magic lead from 33-23 to 33-28 at the 5:27 mark, but the Magic bounded back with a 6-2 run to make it 39-30.

Scalabrine hit two big three's for the Celtics in the first half but Orlando's Rashard Lewis led all scorers with 12 points on 6-of-8 shooting.  Dwight Howard, surely the future star of teh USA 2012 Olympic team, added six points and 12 rebounds.

Halftime score is 45-37, Orlando in a low-scoring affair.

Bruins remain in the lead down in Carolina, 4-2.

A warm welcome as always from Jeff Twiss of the Celtics staff and his trusty assistant, Brian Olive,  along with a nice pre-game chat with Orlando PR guru Joel Glass just made my night.  Of course, the second half and the late night NBA game at JOTS will really make my night.

Gotta log in to see if there are any Bruins tiks!
