Heavy Weight Shootout: Allen vs. Gordon Round 2

Despite a stellar performance from Chicago Bulls star Ben Gordon who poured in 42 points, it just was not meant to be tonight as the Boston Celtics walk away with a 118-115 victory. Boston's Ray Allen extended over Bull's Forward Joakim Noah to sink the winning 3-pointer with only seconds to play. That shot sealed the victory for the Celtics as the series is now tied at 1 game apiece.

The Bulls were able to steal game on the Celtics home floor due in part to the absence of star center, Kevin Garnett and a lack luster performance from Ray Allen. Ben Gordon's heroics were enough to put game one away in the victory column but game two was to go to the home team. The series now moves to Chicago for games 3 & 4 in the best of 7 series.
