EARLY GAME WARNING!!

Let’s see those Hornets show that Digger spirit and pull out a gusty ANZAC Day victory.

We need it.

Google “Digger” and “ANZAC Day”.

Maybe we will catch the Celtics napping. All these Covid-19 testing protocols are wearing, especially on the road.

This game might be ugly for us. Such a shame we don’t have our players to match up vs Boston. Damn.

I love how much recognition Eric Collins is getting. It’s so much deserved and I don’t think there’s a better team announcer in the sport today. I love the entire crew actually. Especially Ashley

We've been pretty bad on national TV and pretty bad playing early games. Maybe that'll be a double negative and we'll somehow play a strong game?

Plz.

Expectations are low, we haven’t been able to score against anyone lately. Basically need guys to have career games while the Celtics are below their norms to win.

Good energy, good rhythm so far. Need to keep Thompson out of the circle, but happy to let them run their offense through that guy all game.

I want to thank Monster Energy for providing the pre-game beverages to the home team.

Offense comes to a screeching halt with Biz out there

Miles continues to be scorching hot from deep

Given the Celtics size, I think this is a game you play Zeller in over Biz easily.

I wish LaMelo would just leave the wrist alone!

Rozier with 6 assists already in the 1st Q. He's been getting high assist numbers more frequently as of late. Awesome to see him playmake a bit more for others.

Can't have Wanamaker and Biyombo on the floor at the same time

Yeah the offense really did come to a screeching halt when Biz came in...

2 Wanamaker layups and the PJ and 1 was all we scored once he checked in I believe...?

We somehow survived those last few mins there. Really need to play Miles and Terry big mins here. Biz has clogged the paint and been a liability at the rim.

Great start. Our bench struggling but thankfully Celts didn’t get too much back by end of Q1. Over reliance on 3 will hurt later.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Return to Charlotte Hornets
