The Celtics outrebounded the Spurs 46-37 last night which was a big reason for the win on Sunday Afternoon. Paul Pierce led the way for the Celtics with 35 points, 6 rebounds and 2 steals. Ray Allen also had a solid game with 19 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists. Eddie House was solid off the bench with 10 points in only 14 minutes on the court. The Celtics are now 39-9 on the season.

The Celtics had to fight tooth and nail last night but every road win is a good win in the NBA. Paul Pierce led the way for the Celtics with 18 points, 2 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals. Ray Allen only shot 5 of 16 from the floor but he still finished with 17 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Leon Powe was solid in 27 minutes off of the bench as he finished up with 16 points and 8 rebounds last night. Eddie House was also good off of the bench last night with 14 points and 4 assists in only 16 minutes. The Celtics are now 38-9 on the season.

Leon Powe had made the most of his increased playing time as of late. Powe has played in 6 games (0 starts) for the Celtics the last two weeks and he has averaged 22.3 minutes, 11.0 points, 6.3 rebounds and 0.5 assists per game. He also is shooting 58.5% from the floor in his last six games. This shouldn’t surprise anyone as Powe played well last season in his limited minutes on the court.

With Kevin Garnett out the Celtics needed someone to step up and Rondo has been that guy. In the last two weeks, Rondo has started 6 games and he is averaging 31.2 minutes, 16.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 2.5 steals per game. He also is shooting the ball really well as he’s hitting 54.2% from the floor and 81.5% from the free throw line. If Rondo keeps playing well the Celtics will be hard to stop. His defense fuels the fast break for the Celtics.

The Celtics shot 53.2% from the floor and they outscored the Clippers 27-19 to pull away with a win last night. Rajon Rondo led the way for the Celtics with 24 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 steals. Ray Allen pitched in with 19 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists. Tony Allen added 17 points and 3 rebounds in 25 minutes off of the bench. The Celtics are now 37-9 on the season.
