ORLANDO -- Vince Carter couldn't hear the TV commentary Tuesday night. Or maybe he could. "These are the moments he was acquired for," one of the ESPN analysts said.
There were 34 seconds left in a huge game. The Magic trailed by three points. They got the ball to Carter who drove the lane and was fouled.
Clank. Clank.
It was the kind of moment that reminded everyone why you don't acquire Carter for that kind of moment.
"When you are playing big games, it's the little things that get you the win," Dwight Howard said.
Boston is doing them and Orlando is not. The results speak for themselves, though they didn't right away on Tuesday. Immediately after the Celtics' 95-92 win, Paul Pierce went before the media and spouted the requisite lingo.
