Avoiding the sting: C's beat Hornets
By: Mike Petraglia

Paul Pierce had a game-high 27 points and Rajon Rondo had 10 assists as the Celtics held off the New Orleans Hornets, 97-87, on Sunday at TD Garden to improve to 4-0 on the season. Unlike their first three games, the Celtics did not control the third quarter. Instead they were outscored, 31-25, as the Hornets cut a 47-38 halftime lead down to three. The Hornets tied the game at 69 before Rasheed Wallace hit a three just before the third-quarter buzzer. Their next test will be on Tuesday night in Philadelphia against the Atlantic Division rival 76ers. Peja Stojakovic led New Orleans with 26. For more, visit the Green Street blog.

Rondo: 'Unlikely I finish in Boston'
By: Jessica Camerato

Before Sunday’s game against the Hornets, Rajon Rondo addressed his ongoing contract negotiations. After saying that he wants to stay a Celtic, he told WEEI.com, “Hopefully for my career, but it’s very unlikely because it’s like five guys that’ve played in the NBA for their entire career. Paul [Pierce] is one of them. You’ve got guys like Ray [Allen] and Kevin [Garnett] that are future Hall of Famers that haven’t been on the same team their entire careers.

“It’s unlikely [I finish in Boston] but I want to. “

Offense sinks Bruins in New York
By: Joe Haggerty

The Bruins outshot the New York Rangers 14-6 in the third period and enjoyed five power plays during the game, but couldn't coax anything past Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist in a 1-0 loss at Madison Square Garden Sunday afternoon. The B's still have yet to put two wins in a row together 13 games into this season. Mark Recchi had a couple of Grade A scoring chances late in the period, but simply couldn't get anything past the All-Star netminder. Blueshirts sniper Marian Gaborik scored the game's only marker in the second period on a rifle shot from the high slot with less than five minutes to go in the second frame.
