With Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Shaq, Ray Allen, and Rajon Rondo all getting night off for Boston, the Sixers, who did play their starters, were finally able to get their first preseason win and their first win of any kind for Doug Collins, defeating the Celtics 103-92. 3 of their 5 starters, Andre Iguodala with 10, Thad Young with 10, and Jrue Holiday with 12, scored in double figures, while the bench combined for 57 huge points which proved to be the difference. In fact, the Sixer's leading scorer on the night, was Mo Speights who came off the bench for 19 points. A win is a win, but it would have been much more impressive if the Celtics had actually been trying to win. At least they finally have a win though.
