Both starting point guards, Jrue Holiday and Rajon Rondo, are putting in great performances for the 76ers and Celtics, respectably, as the Sixers lead by a score of 26-24. The pace of the game has been high, with both teams running the floor well and taking shots early in the shot clock, so it should come as no surprise that the two point guards are the story early. Holiday has 11 points, while Rondo has eight points and five assists.
76ers Vs. Celtics Score: 26-24, Point Guards Dominant In Track Meet
This game probably looks like an all time classic to anyone who was subjected to last night’s college basketball game, mostly due to the fact that players on both teams are able to make jump shots. Holiday has been especially good in this regard, while Nenad Kristic gave the Celtics some good quick minutes off the bench. Kevin Garnett had an up and down first quarter, while Paul Pierce didn’t make an impact, as he didn’t attempt a single shot.
