The Boston Celtics will hit the road and face the Philadelphia 76ers for their NBA Preseason matchup on Monday night. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. ET.

These two teams come into 2012-2013 with different lineups, beginning with the 76ers.

The 76ers took advantage of the Orlando Magic's and Los Angeles Lakers' interests of a Dwight Howard blockbuster trade. So as a result, the Sixers landed Andrew Bynum. In turn, however, the 76ers had to give up the face of their franchise, Andre Iguodala. 

The Celtics added long time Dallas Maverick Jason Terry who will impact the team greatly bringing his ability to create baskets for himself and finish strong at the hoop. Do not count out his energy as Terry can fuel comebacks with his hard-nose style of play. 

The two teams will lock up for the first time following their Game 7 Eastern Conference second round matchup, in which the Sixers almost knocked out the Celtics after eliminating the first place Chicago Bulls. 

Do not expect this match to be as physical, but do not be surprised if we see some amazing things out of both rosters.

The Sixers are young and Doug Melvin has built their self-esteem. The Celtics are confident as veterans Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce continue to prove that though they are not the youngest in the league, they can out perform anybody.

Rajon Rondo looks to continue proving he is the best point guard in the league. Expect him to have the best numbers of his career as he is the new face of the Celtics' franchise.

Once again, the action kicks of a 7 p.m. ET. Philly is 1-1 in the preseason. Meanwhile the Celtics are 1-2.
