The floor was wet, the win was ugly, but... a win is a win. Led by Rajon and Paul Pierce the Celtics were able to beat the undermanned Clippers who were without Eric Gordan. Paul Pierce scored 22 points and Rajon Rondo had 16 points and 12 assists, 7 rebounds and 4 steals and most importantly he had Baron Davis have a relatively quiet game with 16 points and 7 assists. The Celtics also had a good 3rd quarter which has been a make or break time for them. They finished with 21 points and held the Clippers to 15. Rondo's intensity was the key here, he stayed aggressive and got the Celtics open looks.
It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win.
The game was almost called due to the wet floor. Dunleavy and Doc both agreed if one more player slipped they would have called it.
