Celtics stay hot

Today the Boston Celtics took on the New York Knicks at the TD Garden. The Celtics were down by 3 points in the 4th quarter with only five seconds to go and Paul Pierce aka the truth was able to hit a 3 to tie the game. The Celtics won the game in overtime making the current Celtics winning streak increase to four games. Paul Pierce came up huge in the game with 34 points and 7 rebounds. Also, Rajon Rondo was able to get his fourth triple double of the season with 18 points 20 assists and 17 rebounds. This win put the Celtics into 7th place in the east over the Knicks. I think with all the trade rumors going around about the Celtics trying to trade Rondo, the team was really able to come together. Sometimes when players hear they are going to be traded it affects them on the court and they lose focus. But, Rondo did the complete opposite recording two triple doubles in the last week and showing the Celtics why he is the future on the franchise. I think that when Boston is able to get their center Jermaine O'neal healthy they will be a domanite force in the eastern conference.
