WALTHAM, Mass. — Boston Celtics big men Kevin Garnett and Kendrick Perkins were back at practice preparing for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Garnett says there's nothing his mid-foot strain prohibited him from doing in Thursday's workout.

Perkins said he feels a little pain, but his right knee didn't limit him, either.

The Celtics and Cavs are tied 1-1 in the best-of-seven series. Boston could take a big lead with victories at home on Friday and Sunday.
