New York Knicks rout Celtics 108-89 Sunday night as Carmelo Anthony had 24 points and 10 rebounds.
The Knicks beat the Celtics for the second time this week and won the season series for the first time since 2003-04, when they also went 3-1 against Boston. New York climbed back into a tie with Indiana in the race for the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference, which would currently mean a playoff meeting with the Celtics.
Paul Pierce had a double-double 24 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 assists. Jeff Green led all scorers with 27 points on 10-14 FG. Avery Bradley shooting is in a slump, 2 points on 1-5 FG.
