I was only able to catch 1st half (can sum1 fill me in)

I just got back from my own bball game, and I was able to catch most of the 1st half, but not the 2nd.

So What the -*-# Happened??

and

why Did Ray Allen play 40 minutes AGAIN??  Everybody was active on our roster

Can my fellow C-bloggers fill me in, please??

The starters played like garbage in the third quarter. Lot of turnovers (7 or 8 in the quarter), couldn't buy a basket, defense dropped off and Orlando got red hot.

Ended up getting out-scored by something like 35/36 points to 11.

The starters collapsed. As Orlando made their run, the team folded.

What Who said, along with settling for way too many jump shots, and were tentative play offensively.

Magic came out on a mission, the Celtics were on autopilot. They made most damage when our starters went to the bench.

The team got caught flat-footed as the Magic put their offense into gear.  What had been a jerky 3rd quarter stayed rough for the C's as the Magic progressed to smooth sailing.

Thanks guys,

unfortunately it sounds like, they played like what has become the norm, over the last 2 months

They played the same in the second half as they have done in most games this year against good teams. End of story.
