BOSTON - Kevin Garnett needed just one name to explain what keyed Boston's strong third quarter.
"Rondo," Garnett said, pausing for effect. "I thought he changed the momentum of the game. I thought he was a lot more solid. He was aggressive. He picked up the energy."
Rajon Rondo scored 12 of his season high-matching 18 points in the third and the Celtics rebounded from a two-game skid with a 109-95 win over the short-handed Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night.
