The Boston Celtics saw their 12 game winning streak broken by the Los Angeles Lakers. And they also have a record setting 19 game winning streak halted last Christmas day by the same team.

This time around, the Celtics won against the New York Knicks the first basketball game after the loss to the Lakers the second time. Will Boston repeat its dismal showing and start losing once again?

Roger Mason made a three pont field goal with 20.4 seconds remaining to give San Antonio the upperhand. Manu Ginobili then hit four free throws before Mason added a pair as the Spurs increased their distance from Boston. It was the Spurs' ninth win in 11 games.
Tim Duncan led the Spurs with 23 points and 13 rebounds. Seldom used Matt Bonner scored his second most output in scoring with 23 and went 3 of 6 from the three point area. Ginobili tallied 19 points as he came off the bench.
Kevin Garnett had 26 points and 12 rebounds while Paul Pierce had 19 points and eight rebounds. Ray Allen added 18 points while Rajon Rondo passed the ball around to tally 16 assists.
