The Celtics will look to even up the Eastern Conference Finals on Sunday.
The Boston Celtics held serve in front of their home crowd on Friday night, as they defeated the Miami Heat, by double figures, in game three of the Eastern Conference Finals. On Sunday, they'll look to have a repeat performance, to even the series at two games a piece, before the series heads back to South Beach.
Rajon Rondo followed up his epic game two performance with another near-triple double in game three. He finished with 24 points, 10 assists and six rebounds. Kevin Garnett led the way with 24 points and 11 rebounds – he missed only five shot attempts.
If the Heat want to avoid going back to Miami tied at two, they're going to have to get more from Dwyane Wade, who was held to 18 points on 20 shots Friday.
