8:35: The Celtics continued their aggressive play in tonight's first quarter. It could've been better, but I'll still take their current 31-22 lead. Jeff Green is playing well again tonight, leading the C's with 11 points. Pierce has also chipped in 6. Keep watching, this should be a good one.

9:22: The Celtics and Hornets played a virtually equal second quarter. By the end of it, Boston's lead had grown by 1 into a 55-45 halftime advantage. KG now leads the C's with 14. Green has 13. Pierce has 12.

9:48: The Celtics put up no effort in the third quarter. The Hornets easily came back and tied the game at 67. Pierce leads Boston with 17. Garnett has 16. Green has 13.

10:30: Celtics lose at buzzer, 87-86. Good night.
