That must have been some halftime speech. The Celtics finished the third quarter up nine after trailing by three at the half. Boston's defense also held LeBron James to just two points in the third.

Ray Allen, who had five points at the half, scored six points in the third frame, while Garnett pushed his total to 20, Paul Pierce now has 19, and Rajon Rondo has 16.
