Jaylen Brown clearly blocks Melo and can't believe it's called a foul.

This is a great run. I’m waiting for the inevitable 16-2 Celtics run, but this is good stuff.

Tatum pretty much only shoots 3's. I have no idea why we are playing so far off him

This is one of the better offensive first halves this team has had in a while, and it’s still a double-figure deficit because they’ve hit 25 3’s. But it easily could’ve been 75-40, so I’m not gonna complain much.

every game is the exact same. we're just gonna hang around 6-15 pts down until one run puts us down 30 and its over

OMG, just got in and checked the box score. Tatum is at 31 in first half. He’s going for an NBA record tonight.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

We could use another top 5 pick.

Is Charlotte the worst city to be a sports fan in?

Oakland, since all their teams leave. But they do have SF across the bay.

So what we need is Raleigh to get an MLB team that's really good. Them combined with the Hurricanes will balance the suck across the state.

Brandon looks like a 20 year old this game, getting bullied a bit by Bostons vets

McGowens is kind of useless on both ends. That bump from Pritchard was weak. I hope he was flopping or man he's weak.

EDIT Just as I post this he starts ball watching and leaves Svi wide open for an easy 3.

This unit is getting whooped by Boston's scrubs.

The crowd cheering for Pritchard is the cherry on top

I was just thinking that this league is so talented, that it is hard to play nothing burgers like Bryce and Thor any minutes at all and still expect to win.

the Hornets have been "in the game" but they've not had a chance pretty much all night. Boston just has several higher gears that the Hornets just can't access.

there's some good in this game, but it's in little patches of the game, not consistent. the disheartening thing isn't that they're trailing tonight for pretty much the whole game, Boston's a great team. it's that this has been going on game after game after game and they all look so similar.
