The Boston Celtics got the same result on Saturday night as they have on their previous 6 outings, a victory, beating the Hornets 113-100.

Ricky Davis scored 27 points coming off the bench and Paul Pierce scored 23.

``We're rolling,'' Celtics forward Antoine Walker said. ``This builds confidence. ... We've got a good balance of guys who've been there before. We're trying to just keep this train rolling -- just keep winning games however they come.''

``Once we get them on their back, we've just got to put them away. And we did,'' Pierce said. ``You've got a lot of veterans out there who understand the game and understand what it takes to win. We've just got to do a good job of showing the young guys, when they come in, what they have to do for us to be a top-notch team. That's taking care of business, keeping leads, holding on to them and not having any lapses.''
