Celtics takedown Lebrontourage, 97-81 - Rondo dislocates elbow and plays!

It's the stuff that legends are made of tonight!

Rajon Rondo, after dislocating his left elbow on a takedown by Dwyane Wade, returned to play with basically one arm as the Celtics take game 3 Saturday night, 97-81. The Heat still lead the NBA 2nd Round Playoff Series two games to one heading into Monday night's game 4 in Boston.

Watch the highlights and the Rondo injury right here from NBA.com.

Boston, down four at the half, held Miami to just 35 points in the 2nd half.

Kevin Garnett led the Cetlics with a game-high 28 points and 18 rebounds.

Paul Pierce scored 27 points, including some clutch, dagger-like 3's down the stretch to go along with some great defense throughout on Lebron James, who came up with just points.

Delonte West came up big off the bench with 11 points to go along with 6 from Jeff Green.

Shaquille O'Neal, 2 points in eight and a half minutes, returned for the first time in the playoffs.
