NBA Player of the Day

Kevin Garnett - BOS - 28 pts, 18 reb, 2 stl, 13-20 FG, 2-2 FT

For one day, KG looked like the former MVP that he is, totaling more points and rebounds in game 3 than he tallied in games 1 and 2 combined. With a dislocated elbow slowing Rajon Rondo, Garnett took over and gave the Celtics their first win of the series and ensured that they would get another chance to win a game in Miami.
