STARTING LINEUPS:
INTRO:
Going into the game the two players to watch would be Parker and Paul or the other match-up Duncan and Villanueva. Villanueva is playing his third game as a starter and the next game vs Houston, Frye is coming back. Celtics are 3-0 without Frye and Villanueva as a starter, so we will have to wait and see what will Doc Rivers dig out this time. This will be important, its going to be the "Young Guns" A.K.A Rookies vs The Oldest Team in NBA, by age. The Spurs will look to win their 4th straight this season, while the Celtics will look to be over .500 for the 1st ime this season.
FINAL SCORE:
SAN ANTONIO 128-136 BOSTON

Both teams played good, but the Rookies came out on top, beating the CHAMPS. Celtics came prepared and did what they had to do. Spurs came prepared and did what they could, but they couldn't stop the young guns. Paul wasnt a big factor in the game, but he helped them win. He got into foul trouble early and he sat out the whole 2nd qtr. Gerald Green was absolutely outstanding scoring 20 points, 6 rebs, 5 ast, 4 stl on 8-16 FG. McCants, and Bogut picked up the slack. Bogut had his 4th or 5th double-double this season with 17 pts, 12 rebs, 3 blk while Rashad McCants had 18 pts, 1 ast, 1 reb(offensive) shooting 4-6 beyond the arc, and 7-11 FG.
