The injured Kevin Garnett (lower right) watched from the bench as teammate Rajon Rondo shot during the first half of play. When asked if Garnett could play if the Celtics advance to conference finals, coach Doc Rivers replied, "There's a chance he could play tonight, but he's not. We just hope that he keeps getting better. And if [a return later in the postseason] happens it would be great, obviously. Like I said before, I don't think it's going to happen."
