Why do you build me up? (build me up!)
Buttercup baby just to let me down? (let me down)
And mess me around and then worst of all (worst of all)
You never show up, when you say you will (Like the second half)
But I watch you still! I need you (i need you)
To win just one big game darling
But you stil play like a wet fart...

So build me up (build me up!)
Buttercup don't break my hearrrrt...again.

u need doctor phil

WELL.....the first half showed we are a better team---I believe.

BUT, the C's believed it too---SO, they came out Soft as toilet paper to start the 2nd half....and Doc waited UNTIL it was tied to call a timeout and fix this---TOO LATE DOC-!!..You should be able to recognize your own team's mental state!

Didn't help that the refs decided at halftime that the game NEEDED to be closer--So,they called EVERY ticky tack foul on Boston, whilst letting several Orlando fouls go.

#1: Ray Allen getting fouled on the wrist just before Ryan Anderson makes that GREAT block.
#2 Pietrus fouls Glen Davis...BUT no, it's a Great block by the ENTIRE Magic Team--!!

I agree the Refs hose us every game, but they did the same thing in 2008 and we just kept pouring it on. Now we just start crying and putting our heads down. We have to take the game out of the Refs hands by playing so well that there influence can not stop us! We need to play like there's no tomorrow, because for most of this team there isn't. Eddie House, for all that's wrong with his game, is the only one on this team still playing with a swagger. If they're going to call cheap fouls we have to make them expensive for the other team. We need to be the ones tackling there team captain at half court, injuring him in the process, and getting away with it.  We need to be the ones swinging the elbows not just letting people flop and get a call. Where is our aggression? I know we had to let Posey go for contract reasons but if he was still playing for us Caron Butler would have gotten some kind of pay back for that on the next play. See KG on Zaza Pachulia at the end of that Hawks series. Where are those Celtics. Baby needs to be back picking every point guard that comes up the court trying to ball hawk Eddie House. Those hard fouls we should be laying out in the 1st half help people miss shots in the 2nd. We are beasts and we need to start acting like it. We are not a finesse team we are thugs. So lets lay some wood in the second half of this season and stop acting like a bunch of "Big Babies"!!!

And Really, Only Glen Davis is out there taking Charges...Boy, do I miss Posey and Powe when it comes to THIS.

Hell even the Lakers have Derek Fisher layin' people out if anyone messes with the Lakers. Where's our edge man? I've been calling for a Goon since the start of the season but no one has stepped up. That's the best thing Nocioni would bring with him if we got him. Hinrich too for that matter. How many times can Ray allen and PP get knocked on there asses without some pay back. I thought Sheed would bring a little toughness but he looks old in that department. I think Rondo is our toughest player. He layed it on the Bulls last year.  Everybody else needs to step up or shut up!
