Rondo a hero, Celtics beat Heat in Game 3
Rajon Rondo - G - Boston Celtics
May 8, 2011 - 12:10 AM ET
Rajon Rondo suffered a dislocated left elbow in an awkward fall, had it popped back into place, and started the fourth quarter to finish with six points and 11 assists in 34 minutes.
Kevin Garnett scored 28 and Paul Pierce added 27, but the story of the night was Rondo. The video replays were hard to watch and the fact he returned was almost shocking. He'll be in some pain on Sunday, but it's now hard to imagine him missing Monday's Game 4, when the Celtics have a chance to tie the Heat in the series.
