Boston Celtics swat pesky Charlotte Hornets to win 113-102 (PHOTOS)
· Yahoo Sports
The Boston Celtics took an early punch well from the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday (April 7) evening, but saw themselves playing from behind for much of the middle of their eventual 113-102 win over the Hornets. The Celtics did not get control of the game until the final frame of the contest, the Celtics locking in with enough time to win a hardfought victory over the ball club that had handed them their worst loss of the season in their penultimate tilt.

Boston actually lost the shot margin 88-87 in this one, but with Charlotte coach Charles Lee cribbing much of the Celtics' offensive style, that is not a huge surprise. But Boston holding the Hornets to 43 percent from the field and 33 percent from beyond the arc likely secured the win given the shot margin, and winning the battle of the boards 45 to 40 certainly did not hurt.
Let's take a look at the best plays from the Celtics win captured in images below.
