 Boston vs. Atlanta
Up to the minute news about the Boston Celtics from GoTeamsGo. We'll find the latest Boston Celtics news so you can chat about here. Quote: HAWKS 100 CELTICS 96
WSBtv.com, GA - 7 hours ago
Josh Childress had a season-high 23 points and 14 rebounds to lead the Atlanta Hawks to a 100-96 win over the Boston Celtics at Philips Arena.
"The win is more important," said Childress when talking about his double- double. "Obviously, the double-double is great, the triple-double would be better, but I was way far off that. Getting the 12th win is big. We really need to focus in on this week because I think we can get another three wins."
Josh Smith added 18 points seven blocks and five steals while Joe Johnson netted 18 and also pulled down nine rebounds for the Hawks, who have won two in a row. Zaza Pachulia chipped in 12 points.
Allan Ray scored a career-best 22 points and Gerald Green poured in 22 for the Celtics, who have lost five straight. Al Jefferson donated 18 points and grabbed 17 boards in the setback.
"Everybody hates losing, but we got something out of it," said Jefferson. "We're getting better. We're playing good as a team. We're in every game. So were getting something. You've got to get some kind of positive out of a loss."
