The Boston Celtics finally ended the longest losing streak in franchise history, beating a Milwaukee Bucks team that was struggling almost as badly as they were. The San Antonio Spurs finished an eight-game road trip with a win against Detroit that snapped the Pistons' seven-game winning streak.
Paul Pierce scored 32 points, Gerald Green had 21, and the Celtics beat the Bucks 117-97 Wednesday night to snap an 18-game slide and get their first win since Jan. 5. Boston, which broke its previous franchise record of 13 straight losses, was closing on the NBA's record of 24 — including 23 in one season. However, the Celtics rallied from a 15-point deficit to go ahead in the second quarter and then opened a double-digit lead in the third. "We could have easily ended up in that zone with NBA-record losing streaks," Pierce said. "We definitely eyed this game. Milwaukee had a lot of pieces missing, so we wanted to take advantage of that." The Bucks lost their fourth straight and dropped to 3-17 since Michael Redd went out with a strained patellar tendon in his left knee. Also, Charlie Villaneuva was out with an ankle sprain he picked up the previous night; Mo Williams' was slowed by a shoulder injury; and Earl Boykins picked up a cut on his right leg that needed stitches in the first half.
