Raymond Felton's three-pointer for Charlotte forced the first overtime with a three-pointer by Cleveland's Damon Jones leading to the second.

The Boston Celtics improved to 30-4 with an 86-77 road win over the New Jersey Nets. Kevin Garnett had 20 points and 11 rebounds for the league-leading Celtics while the Nets scored only seven points in the final 11 minutes of the fourth quarter after leading 70-63.

Bobby Jackson's career-high seven three-pointers and 25 points led the New Orleans Hornets to a 114-88 rout of the Miami Heat , who lost their 10th in a row.

Antawn Jamison scored 22 points and Caron Butler 21 in the Washington Wizards' 102-98 overtime victory over the Atlanta Hawks, who were led by Josh Smith's 35 points. The loss came hours after the NBA ruled the Hawks must replay the final 51.9 seconds of a victory over the Miami Heat last month because a home scoring crew incorrectly fouled out Miami's Shaquille O'Neal when he actually had five fouls.
