Kristaps Porzingis took some of the blame after another disappointing playoff performance, this time in a Game 3 loss to the Magic.

Through three games of this first-round series, the seventh-seeded Magic have displayed a physical style of basketball that the defending champion Celtics say they believe is over the line.

A rough start to the second half put Boston behind the proverbial eight-ball, and a desperate Magic held on to avoid the dreaded 0-3 series deficit.
