Jason Kidd scored 29 points as the New Jersey Nets completed a sweep of the Eastern Conference semi-final with a 110-101 win in double overtime on Monday.They'll play in the Eastern Conference final for the second straight year against Detroit or Philadelphia.

　　New Jersey swept a best-of-seven series for the first time after being swept in seven of them, including last year's NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers. It was only the third time Boston was swept, and the first in a seven-game series in 20 years.

　　The Celtics had a chance to win in the first overtime, but Paul Pierce missed a 3-pointer as the buzzer sound-ed with the score 97-97.

　　The Nets then held the ball before Kidd hit a 3-pointer as the buzzer sounded - a final farewell to the Boston fans who taunted with yells of "wife beater."

　　The taunts were a reference to charges he struck his wife in 2001; the charges were dropped when Kidd underwent anger counseling and paid a fine.

　　Kidd added 10 rebounds and nine assists, while Martin finished with 22 points and 10 rebounds.

　　"Jason Kidd is a great player," Boston coach Jim O'Brien said. "He's the best passer I've seen in my life."

　　For Boston, Pierce had 27 points and 10 rebounds, while Tony Delk scored 23, a career playoff high. Antoine Walker had 20 points, nine rebounds and seven assists for the Celtics and went 8-for-15 from the field.

　　Richard Jefferson and Eric Williams traded baskets in the second overtime before Kerry Kittles' 3-pointer put the Nets ahead to stay, 102-99, with 3:56 remaining. Williams' basket was Boston's only one of the second overtime as the Nets outscored the Celtics 13-4.

　　Kenyon Martin's layup made it 104-99 before Jefferson hit a free throw. After Williams missed a 3-pointer, his two free throws made it 105-101 with 36 seconds to play.

　　Kidd was fouled and made both shots, and Williams missed a layup on the Celtics' final possession. The Nets then held the ball before Kidd hit a 3-pointer as the buzzer sounded.
