Good game Hornets. I wish my heart was with Charlotte instead of Philadelphia because over the years I've learned to really like this team

Their 3rd game in 4 days. We should take the advantage.

Edit: we either lol.

Last season Charlotte was 30-11 at home (73%), 6th best in the league. Really hoping that rolls over to this season. Spectrum Center should be lit for the opener, with the Panthers disappointing start the city is ready for something positive to cheer for.

Sessions has been really bad thru 2 games. We could really use a good game from him tonight. Celtics so good on perimeter defensively. Kemba will need help, and a breather.

Sessions is shooting 23% (3-for-13)
Only taken 2 FTs
0-for-5 on jumpshots

When is Roberts coming back, he's unquestionably better at this point IMO.

3 games in 4 days for both teams? Brutal. That's the kind of matchup where injuries happen. I'm thinking that Boston has the advantage here though. They had last night off.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

I do wonder if Cliff rode Lamb to close out MIA both to reward Lamb and to preserve MKG a bit for tonight.

+ I swear every second one of his drives turns into a 3-on-2 the other way. His insistence on crashing into three defenders has been up to par, if not more than usual.

I really hope he hasn't fallen off a cliff. He seemed decent last year in Washington to me and his shooting stats at the rim seem to back that up. However, it certainly wouldn't be a surprise that the man would start to decline at 30 years of age, 6-3 and no real physical gifts (for the NBA level).

Should be a good one tonight, always seems to be when these two go at it. At some point we need a Celts-Hornets playoff series.
