Boston Celtics 74 – 100 Charlotte Bobcats

Undoubtedly the biggest upset of the night took place in Charlotte. As Paul Pierce took a game off, Gerald Henderson led the way for the Bobcats, dropping a career-high 35 points on the Celtics.

The first two quarters were relatively even, but in the second half Charlotte took over the game and didn’t look back.

Kevin Garnett needed just nine points to pass Jerry West for the 15th spot in the all-time scoring list, but came up short of the milestone. The forward shot 2-10 from the field, good for a mere five points.
