The Celtics knew they had to get back to the Basics and defend as well as play Good Tough C's Hoops. The Bad Part was the Regulators were in Town not trying to hear any of that.

After the Dust settled the Green Team get a 108-100 Victory not before KD and Uncle Russ do what they do to keep the Thunder in the Game. After a Nip and Tuck 1st Half the C's get the decisive 3rd Frame 29-20 and put the Game away. Led by Rondo's 16 Helpers and the Truth's 27 points the C's get a much-needed Win. The Regulators get 29 from KD and a Nice Floor Game from Uncle Russ with 26 points, 7 boards, and 8 helpers.

The Celtics just made up their Mind enough was enough and against a Grade A Opponent in the Logo this is the Barometer to see where your at or if your Worthy of playing up to an Opponent of that Caliber and the C's were. Ibaka had a strong Game with 17 and 13 as K-Mart only has 3 points. The C's get 18 from Big Ticket, 16 from Jet Terry, and 17 from Jeff Green. That's the Production the C's need from their Secondary Scorers to get into that Upper Echelon in the East. Celts move to 7-6 and Thunder 9-4.

The Brooklyn Nets came to play and the Clips were in the way. Down 47-40 at the Break the Nets go +17 in the 2nd Half and play a Game of Half Court Lock Down on the Clips and CP3 and prevail 86-76. Neither Team shot the Orange great but it was all about Nets Center Brooks Lopez and his 26 Huge points vs DeAndre Jordan and the BLAKEshow. Those Two players combined for 26 and 21 boards between them.

As far as the Point God Battle Royale between D-Will 8 and CP3 it was for not. CP3 had 14 and 9 and D-Will had 11 and 8 but it was about directing the Flow of the Game and getting the Orange into the Right Peoples Hands. For once this Season the Clips didn't get anything from their Bench on a Night where they needed them from an Offensive Production Standpoint as Jamal 206 had 14 points to lead the Clips Bench. Besides 26 and 11 from Brooks and D-Will JJ...Joe Johnson had 19 Points.

The Clips move to 8-4 and the Nets are 7-4 and set up the Monday Night Game vs the Knicks at the Barclays with the Knicks coming in at 8-3.
