ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -Boston’s Kevin Garnett and Orlando’s Jameer Nelson are trying to make up for lost time.
They were sidelined with injuries in last year’s second-round playoff series and diminished to spectators on the bench. The competitors could only make their presence felt through trash-talking words from the bench.
Anything to feel a part of the playoffs.
The injuries to each last season, in their own ways, became the symbol of why their teams fell short. Now healthy and playing their best basketball of the season, both get a shot at redemption when the Celtics and Magic meet in the Eastern Conference finals beginning Sunday.
