There's always star power at the TD Garden when the Celtics take the floor, but it'll be double on Sunday afternoon.
The Celtics' veteran Big Three will take on the Miami Heat's superstar trio for the third time this season. C's vets Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett will match up with the triumvirate of LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade.
The more interesting question, though, is who starts around the big three for Heat coach Erik Spoelstra. The Heat have experimented with different big men and different point guards this season, settling these days on Zydrunas Ilgauskas and Mario Chalmers.
Ilgauskas has a dangerous jump shot from all over the floor, which could spread the court for James and Wade to drive; Chalmers, meanwhile, is a young quick body to put on the Celtics' Rajon Rondo. He can also knock down a jump shot or two.
The Heat are a deceptively deep team — they've got a lot of different looks to throw at the C's on both ends.
Here's the lineup card for C's-Heat:
Celtics
Rajon Rondo, PG
Ray Allen, SG
Paul Pierce, SF
Kevin Garnett, PF
Kendrick Perkins, C
Heat
Mario Chalmers, PG
Dwyane Wade, SG
LeBron James, SF
Chris Bosh, PF
Zydrunas Ilgauskas, C
