Wild one at the Garden


Celtics come out victorious in OT tonight over the Raptors, 115-109. Paul Pierce led the C's with 39 points. This game was really the Raptors' for most of the 1st 3 quarters. The Celtics, especially KG, had some trouble hitting shots early, and the Raptors were just shooting the lights out for a while. Then, in the 4th quarter, the Raps went cold and Paul Pierce took over. He couldn't however hit the 1st of 2 free throws near the end of the 4th, enabling Andrea Bargnani to drill a 3 and send it into overtime. (after a failed Pierce to Rondo alley-oop attmept with 1.6 seconds left) Pierce hit a couple big jumpers and KG had a key block in the extra frame. Next up, Devin Harris and the New Jersey Nets on Wednesday night. Tip-off is at 7:30pm in the Garden. Goodnight Celtic's fans....
