The Washington Wizards beat the Boston Celtics last night at the Verizon Center, 109-95.
With that, the Wizards won the season series, 3-1. Washington (41-37) is trying to get the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference (and home-court) but wherever they end up, they would most likely meet the Celtics in the second round of the playoffs. In other words, don't worry about it for now.
Paul Pierce led the Celtics (62-16) with a game-high 28 points, seven assists and six turnovers in 37 minutes. KG had 22 points, 15 rebounds and five assists in 31 minutes and Ray Allen was the only other Celtic in double figures with 13 points in 37 minutes.
Antawn Jamison led the Wizards with 27 points and 11 rebounds. DeShawn Stevenson added 14 points while Caron Butler (11 assists) and Gilbert Arenas (4 steals) both scored 13. Brendan Haywood had 12 points and even Darius Songaila posted 10.
The Celts return to the Garden tomorrow night and face the Bucks once again. Should be a hell of a game.
