Celtics win!

Of course, that was the only possible outcome of Saturday nights' Green vs. White scrimmage at Salve Regina University. After two 15-minute periods, it was the Green (made up of Celtics starters Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo as well as Brian Scalabrine, Sam Cassell, Darius Miles and Patrick O'Bryant) who emerged victorious, 47-40.
In front of a packed Rodgers Recreation Center crowd, most of which was clad in Celtics green, the Green got off to a slow start and trailed much of the first period, thanks in part to the hot shooting of Eddie House, who scored seven of the White's first nine points.
The Green took control late in the second period. With about five minutes left, Rondo and Garnett hooked up on a breakaway that ended with Garnett throwing down a reverse dunk.
Miles might have produced the biggest cheers of the night with his rim-rocking, two-handed dunk with 26 seconds left to give the Green a 45-37 lead.
Anyone who showed up expecting an all-star style exhibition (i.e. no defense, lots of running and dunking), however, might have been disappointed. All the players clearly took the scrimmage quite seriously, perhaps none more so than Garnett, who was visibly (and audibly) upset with the Green's performance early on.
The Celtics will practice Sunday before wrapping up their training camp in Newport on Monday morning.
