OK. So, I guess Kornet Starters.
But who comes in, and when, and for how long?

Interesting game. IINM, this is the first time Joe will be coaching against a former assistant? Charles Lee knows the ins and outs of the way Cs play.

Porzingis and Horford Out, at-the-same-time, could be a recurring problem.
Do Celtics have enough to shore that up?

Dare I say, that we might need to Start Queta, and have Kornet come in, if Queta fails?
Then back them up with Tillman.

Seems like we need another Big (that can play), in the pipeline? A Two-Way?

Or play small with JT at center and Hauser/Peterson/Watson at the 4 (just for a few minutes to see how it goes)

LaMelo is the reason last year's lesser Hornets team won a game vs Boston. They're better this year.

Who starts at center doesn't matter much but Queta would be nice as there won't be an energy deficit. It'll almost surely be Kornet though, which is fine too.

Tatum at Center, and Hauser at the 4? Might work for stints. Hauser's coming off Injury, though.
Peterson and Watson can come, but eh. Might as well bring Davison too?

Davison is not an NBA player. Keep him in Main
You suggested getting a 2-way big. Let JD go to China or Europe and bring a big

Hey sorry but could someone do me a favor and take over the postgame thread tonight? I woke up with a crazy headache and I put the TV on just now and it made me feel worse, so I'm not even sure I'll be able to watch the game.

If the Hornets win tonight, their average wins since Kemba left for the Celtics would be 25. The lowest win total for the Celtics in the Brad Stevens era is 25.

The Hornets haven't won a playoff series since 2002. That's damn impressive!

Kemba Walker an Assistant Coach for the Hornets?

Fierce1 · Post #35 » by **Fierce1** » Fri Nov 1, 2024 11:04 pm

Let's see if who gets more playing time between Luke and Queta.

You know, I was wondering that. Even though Kornet gets the Start, I think that Queta may play more.
