We just aren't playing like a championship caliber team right now.
Our energy level goes up and down--it goes from acceptable (high) to lack of energy (low). In this game, I haven't seen the high energy, high intensity level yet.

Guys need to get on the same page. I get that feeling like the energy level isn't what you are saying it is Derren, because we aren't trusting each other. Sheed will launch up an ill advised shot. Rondo will force a pass, we will miss a layup etc... It just seems to me like we aren't playing like a team right now and all on the same page.
The C's really need to look at themselves and instead of just saying Ubuntu mean it. It's one thing to say it. It's another to back it up.

Very sloppy basketball. KG must have missed at least 8 layups/tip ins. They are allowing too many easy baskets and open shots for the magic. sloppy ball handling. Oh, and Rasheed can't throw it in the ocean. But yet they are right there. And there is still time for the good Celtics to show up and wi8n this game.

Orlando is just hitting some ridiculous 3's. Espically Pieterous. This is still very winnable if we can just start hitting some shots. It just seems like every time we get close they hit a three but it's been a bad shot so they are just hitting shots that we are wanting them to take.

Great start to the 4th. We really need to hit some 3's. 0-12? Where did that come from? We are a better shooting team than that.

nice 3 by eddie. Sheed needs to settle down and realize he doesnt have it from 3 tonight? That's a tough line. You want to keep shooting but eh......... I don't know what I'd do there.
This is an intense game though. Whoah.

Celtics within 1. Now if they can only keep up this intensity through the end of the game we might have this!

Vince carter is looking like the magic made the right move there. The Magic are no pushovers man. They went to the finals and beat us last year and that confidence is carrying over.

Sheed might be missing but he's doing the little things and is still in the game.
Good move by Doc inserting House over Rondo as well. Rondo doesn't seem to have it right now.

He's 8-26 and has a ton of turnovers. No they are not pushovers, but VC isn't very efficient and that will be thier downfall.

He gives them another weapon. Turkoglu was like glu on that team. I'm not saing they beat us this year. I dont think they would with Turkoglu either. They are more dangerous with Carter though. With Rashard Lewis back they are a better team. They need to stop relying on carter so much though. If the play off Carter and use him and Lewis like we use Ray and Pierce they can be very dangerous. Right now with lewis being out for so long they've kind of locked onto carter which isn't good.

Bogus call on Pierce, if that's a foul then Pierce should have been at the line for 3 FT two possessions ago.

A great game ruined by the refs at the end. Ray's TO was killer.
