The Celtics fought hard with Orlando, forcing a double overtime game on Wednesday night. Despite Orlando’s best efforts, Paul Pierce, Delonte West and the Boston Celtics emerged victorious — causing ripples throughout the Atlantic Division.
The Celtics defeated the Magic 105-96 on the floor of the TD BankNorth Garden. Paul Pierce led the team with his 32 points, but Delonte West added in 17 points, three rebounds, three assists and a couple of steals.
Tonight — the Celtics are on the road and facing off against the Philadelphia 76ers. While Philly is out of the playoff picture like the Celtics are, the Celtics certainly have a much brighter (and more immediate) future in place.
Tonight’s game will tip off at 7:00PM ET with television coverage available on Fox Sports New England. Tune in and check out Delonte West squaring off against Willie Green. West should have a speed advantage to rely on tonight as both he and Green are the same height — but West is some 20 pounds lighter.

Tonight at the TD BankNorth Garden, Delonte West will welcome his former teammate Jameer Nelson and the surging Orlando Magic.
The Magic have won their last two games against teams battling with them for the final spots in the Eastern Conference playoff hunt. With wins over the Knicks and the Nets, the Magic are hoping to come into Boston and continue their winning ways.
The Celtics though are looking to win their second straight as they continue to develop their youth and look forward to better days ahead.
In the past when these two teams played, it usually matched Delonte up directly Jameer at the point. Tonight though, with Rajon Rondo assuming the duties as the Celtics PG — Delonte will be matched up with NBA veteran Grant Hill.

Tonight’s game at the BankNorth Garden in Boston will gather little attention from the league. With the best team in the league squaring off against one of the worst — results seem predictable.
Fans of the Boston Celtics though know better than to buy into that nonsense. Less than a week removed from their win in San Antonio over the Spurs, Delonte West and the Boston Celtics will be playing and playing hard tonight against a Mavs team that has a firm grasp on their playoff aspirations.
