ANDREW Bogut scored 25 points and had 17 rebounds as the Milwaukee Bucks beat another Eastern Conference heavyweight, making a fourth-quarter comeback to beat the Boston Celtics 86-84 last night.
Carlos Delfino added 19 points for Milwaukee in a game that featured a heated on-court confrontation between Bucks rookie Brandon Jennings and the Celtics' Glen Davis midway through the fourth quarter.
The Bucks went on an 18-9 run from there, grabbing an 86-79 lead on Jennings' floating jumper in the lane with 2:42 left.
Rajon Rondo converted a three-point play, then Kevin Garnett hit a jumper to cut the lead to two with 53 seconds left. Paul Pierce missed a potential game-tying shot just before the final horn. Rondo had 20 points for Boston.
Bobcats 83, Heat 78
At Charlotte, North Carolina, Stephen Jackson scored 17 points, Raymond Felton added 15 points and 11 assists as Charlotte used a fourth-quarter comeback to beat Miami in a key game for playoff positioning in the Eastern Conference.
The Bobcats (31-31) reached .500 at the latest point in their six-year history and moved level with Miami (32-32) as they both tussle with Chicago for the last two playoff spots.
Charlotte moved to 3-0 against Miami and clinched the tiebreaker by rallying from nine points down with 9 minutes left.
Dwyane Wade scored 27 points, but passed up a tying shot in the final minute, then clanged a tying 3-point attempt in the final seconds for the Heat, who had their three-game winning streak snapped.
Jazz 132, Bulls 108
At Chicago, Deron Williams got the better of Derrick Rose, finishing with 28 points and a season-high 17 assists, and CJ Miles scored a season-best 26 points to lead Utah.
Williams threw down a hard dunk on Rose during a 13-1 run late in the third quarter that broke a 77-all score and sent Utah to its 22nd win in 27 games. Miles scored 18 in the fourth, hitting four of his six 3-pointers, as the Jazz outscored Chicago 40-27 and secured at least a .500 record for the 26th time in 27 years.
With 25 points and 13 assists, Rose didn't exactly get dominated in a matchup of star point guards. But the Bulls equaled a season high with their fifth straight loss even though Brad Miller scored 20.
Magic 113, Clippers 87
At Orlando, Florida, Dwight Howard had 22 points and 15 rebounds as Orlando beat Los Angeles to equal a season high with six straight victories.
Jameer Nelson had 17 points and Rashard Lewis added 15 to help the Magic take a 26-point halftime lead and cruise to a blowout after beating the Lakers in an NBA finals rematch Sunday.
Pacers 107, 76ers 96
At Indianapolis, Dahntay Jones scored 25 points to help Indiana end a four-game losing streak.
Brandon Rush had 24 points and nine rebounds, and Troy Murphy added 19 points for the Pacers (21-43), who won for just the second time in nine games. Indiana played without leading scorer Danny Granger, suspended one game by the NBA for his part in an altercation in Phoenix on Saturday.
Jrue Holiday scored 21 points and Samuel Dalembert added 16 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks for the 76ers (23-40). Philadelphia has dropped six of eight since Allen Iverson left the team for personal reasons.
Rockets 96, Wizards 88
At Washington, Luis Scola had 23 points and 10 rebounds and Kevin Martin scored 21 points as Houston moved back above .500.
The Rockets took the lead for good midway through the second quarter and were hardly threatened in the second half by the Wizards, who have lost four straight and six of seven.
Aaron Brooks added 14 points and Trevor Ariza returned from an injury to score 13 for the Rockets, who won despite shooting 38 percent to the Wizards' 42.
