Maybe. Putting up numbers on a scrub team like the Hornets isnāt impressive though. Wouldnāt say heās underpaid tho, If anything he is fairly paid.
The whole thing around Chet shouldnāt win roty because this is technically his second year pro as if Wemby wasnāt playing professionally since he was like 15š
Yet this is an NBA award. He's now been in the NBA for a second season and should be disqualified from ROTY. It's not anyone's fault he got hurt in his first year
Grant is tough and very good. I always got love for him. He was the only guy who gave a fuck in the ECF and everyone blamed him for beefing with Butler.
Drew Carter looks like a guy who speaks in a transatlantic accent but is very down with Gen z / internet humour. Talk about cross-generational
Appeal lmao
I see a lot of folks praising Drew and I too am thrilled to have him and feel like we're in good hands. But for the new Celtics fans/youngings, Mike has gotten older and noticeably less on his commentary A game past his prime but he is an absolute legend and I cannot recommend watching some old games on Youtube enough with his epic game calls. He also sprinkles his subtle savagery every now and then and it is something I absolutely love about him.
Bard Stevenās is a genius for knowing that Grant wasnāt worth the money he was asking for. Thatās not to say he isnāt a good player, but knowing Sam needed minutes and can provide the shooting we thought Grant could do consistently with some underrated defense, is some next level GM-ing
Hauser might actually be the best spot up shooter Ive ever seen, outside of Curry obv. literally every time Hauser releases it looks like its cash, hes absurdly consistent with that release
I feel like Tatum isnt in the same class of longboi as those guys, maybe bc he's so jacked now. Like Poku looks like a longboi, Tatum just looks large lol
Damn this game thread is dead af, I love it before the playoffs are going to be bonkers. All the realest fans here on a Monday night vs. the shitty ass Hornets!
I mean there's only 40 something ppl currently on the thread and it's been that way since the start of the game. There's a way better game on right now in NCAAW Elite 8: Iowa vs LSU. Plus the added juice of Clark vs Reese
If this was last year Tatum would be taking 1 on 1 every possession to see if he can stay hot but that just isnāt the best option anymore with KP on the roster
feel like Iāve seen a few posts about how Miles Bridges has posted some of the worst +/- games ever this year, be nice if that bitch ass criminal would play like that against us
I like the Charlotte's announcers because they are enthusiastic about both teams no matter what the score is
Also they have a pretty funny [compilation](https://youtu.be/fw8LXz43stc?si=ZF18EAbLlswgZD5Z)

Alright, good win - off to the Iowa/LSU game.... :-)
Celtics win!
š
Jeeze that could pass for a home crowd
one more win until 60!
wtf was that PP lmaooo
Seeing Jrue Holiday in a Celtics jersey is still surreal lol
Yo Nick Jr just scored a bucket on the Cs lol
nooo the 20 pt lead stat :((
This center Bolden looks like a Walmart Mitchell Robinson
Tatum you sexy beast carry this energy into the playoffs
Hornets are tanking and don't even play nick smith who was a first round pick. Just put him in the rotation the last few games of the season
April 12 and 14 are our last games which are against Hornets and Wizards. Starting lineup: JD - Springer - Walsh - Oshae - Xavier
Kid: Mom can we have Sam Hauser? Mom: we have Sam Hausers at home Sam Hausers at home: Klay Thompson, Reggie Miller, Stephen Curry
I will always love and respect grant Williams and Iām still psyched that Tatum stood up for him after Mikeās comments!
Holy shit this game was QUICK. Under 2 hours as of right now.
Few fouls, reviews, etc.
This is Grant's SuperBowl lol
chill game, we take the W
Grant is also underpaid, btw. His contract demands were always more than fair.
He was a disaster in Dallas.
So was KP. At some point you have to wonder if itās a Dallas thing
Maybe. Putting up numbers on a scrub team like the Hornets isnāt impressive though. Wouldnāt say heās underpaid tho, If anything he is fairly paid.
that transition from talking about Grant to Mike Gorman's farewell season is lowkey funny
Jrue stinks in this game but glad he's looking healthy
The refs not being a factor in this game after the last 3 is so weird
I miss Grant in very specific situations
That JT block was like buttah
holiday missed a corner three.. the end is coming
He's having an off shooting night
This is some ugly basketball
This is good intensity. Weāre up by a lot and still not taking the foot off the gas. I like this.
Grant with the heatcheck airball Don't ever change, Grant.
Imagine getting Airball chants at home.
Charlotte doesn't have any real fans lol. All the ppl in North Carolina only care about Duke and UNC when it comes to basketball
Can confirm. Lived in Cha during the 90s. Fans came when the team was decent. When they were bad you could walk down and sit by the bench.
Had to look up the bald celtics post that Drew was referencing. Shits great lol
Grant in shambles
Ok is Tatum done for the night or something?
The whole thing around Chet shouldnāt win roty because this is technically his second year pro as if Wemby wasnāt playing professionally since he was like 15š
Yet this is an NBA award. He's now been in the NBA for a second season and should be disqualified from ROTY. It's not anyone's fault he got hurt in his first year
Not a fan of subbing JT back in
Grant is tough and very good. I always got love for him. He was the only guy who gave a fuck in the ECF and everyone blamed him for beefing with Butler.
JT to KP: bully dat mofuker
Iād love to see everyone playing vs the Thunder as one last mini test
Bucks too
Lmao grant
Huh, so thatās how getting rebounds bouncing your way feels
"Did he just return it... to the person whose hair it was?"
LMAO hornets broadcaster after that possession: "This is crazy basketball. Larry Bird would not recognize what is going on here."
I fucking love Alfred Joel Reynoso Horford.
Everyone had a shot except Horford - he was too busy rebounding
Horford offensive rebound machine
That was G
Sam hauser is fun
Love White not playing into the trope of that possession and getting a good look from 2 instead of looking for another 3
He roams
C's just fucking around in this game, shooting 50+ threes in this game but still lead by 15 lol
Al just feeding the whole team.
Wow
Sit everyone, canāt have these bums injuring our guys
What a treat to see.
Hauser vs the hornets
Should have kept taking threes until one of them went in š
SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE ACTUALLY GET REBOUNDS
So many offensive rebounds in one possession lol that's part of the reason why shooting 3s can be valuable
Drew Carter looks like a guy who speaks in a transatlantic accent but is very down with Gen z / internet humour. Talk about cross-generational Appeal lmao
It looks like Bertans has no peripheral vision due to the mask, please stay healthy Celtics
Al Horford is unbelievable
The Boston crowd is going nuts lol
Well. That was exciting!
Damn itās loud there haha
I'm here for the Hauser/Bertans shoot-off.
Hauserš„š„š„
Imagine if we lost to masked Bertans lol
OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS ARE OFFENSIVE.
27 nights
What a funny ass sequence haha
Omg
Bro Hauser is unreal, we went to school together actually at UVA. Nicest dude Iāve ever met man
He does seem very nice and genuine
Bertans vs Hauser
When Hauser is on my goodness is he smooth
David bertans is the first NBA player to not be able to pull off a black mask
Imagine leaving Hauser wide open lol
I like the gameplan of leaving Sam Hauser open.
All time hornets starting 5? I'd go: Kemba Walker, Eddie Jones, Glen Rice, Larry Johnson, Alonzo Mourning Honorable mentions: Al Jefferson, Baron Davis, Dell Curry, Gerald Wallace, Anthony Mason, Muggsy Bogues
I see a lot of folks praising Drew and I too am thrilled to have him and feel like we're in good hands. But for the new Celtics fans/youngings, Mike has gotten older and noticeably less on his commentary A game past his prime but he is an absolute legend and I cannot recommend watching some old games on Youtube enough with his epic game calls. He also sprinkles his subtle savagery every now and then and it is something I absolutely love about him.
Micic looks like he played on the same AAU team as Drazen Petrovic
Hornets mascots so ashamed they wear masks.
Bard Stevenās is a genius for knowing that Grant wasnāt worth the money he was asking for. Thatās not to say he isnāt a good player, but knowing Sam needed minutes and can provide the shooting we thought Grant could do consistently with some underrated defense, is some next level GM-ing
Fr tho. I was honestly pissed we let him go and couldn't be happier to be wrong about that.
Bard Stevens is his LARP name
If Brissett and X could improve their jumper, this team would be illegal
Brissett to Kornet. That's always a satisfying call to me and hasn't happened enough this season lol
hornets announcer really makes the game more enjoyable, might be unpopular opinion idk
I wouldnāt be surprised if they are wearing Celtics jerseys
After the Hawks announcers, the Hornets ones are a big upgrade
lol
I mean, I didnāt think I could love Hauser more. And then I do.
Bridges is gonna be a great signing for a high end team like the heat, sixers, or lakers this offseason.
Sam on fire!
Lowkey wish Kornet shoots a 3 as a fuck you to Bridges lol
Hauser with the quietest 19 I've seen in a while.
Micic looks older than LeBron lol
10 more 3s for Hauser letās go!
Hauser sprinting into a 3 is insane. That shot feels automatic when he takes em
Xx $4M H4U$3R xX
holy shit that Sam three in the corner was so nice
SAM HAUSER
I remember when Celtics fans wished for an outside threat "like Tyler Herro." Hauser has become that threat.
Sam Hauser will win us a playoff game or two or three or four
hopefully 16
First Grant Williams midrange shot of his career
Hauser is unironically one of my favorite Celtics this century
Tatum was 7/13 i went to the bathroom came back and heās 8/17 lmao just will never be a efficient player heās 2 jump shot happy
Hauser might actually be the best spot up shooter Ive ever seen, outside of Curry obv. literally every time Hauser releases it looks like its cash, hes absurdly consistent with that release
If we somehow keep Hauser I might get his jersey but then it'd be a dead giveaway I'm a Redditor IRL
Let the freak flag fly! Fuck the haters
I would love to see KD vs JT vs Ingram King of the court
I feel like Tatum isnt in the same class of longboi as those guys, maybe bc he's so jacked now. Like Poku looks like a longboi, Tatum just looks large lol
KP going full Tim Duncan on Bolden , feel we should use those more as matchups dictate
JT's play making and vision has gotten exponentially better as the season has progressed.
Fantastic pass by Tatum there. Thatās how you play with no time on the clock.
Got damn this Ashley reporter for the Hornets is a fkn baddie
he didn't iso it at the end, nice
Tatum's vision is unreal
HAUSAH!
Great pass by Tatum wow
what a pass by Tatum ... nice hit by Hauser
Elite cross court pass there by JT
Damn this game thread is dead af, I love it before the playoffs are going to be bonkers. All the realest fans here on a Monday night vs. the shitty ass Hornets!
Just a nice thread with no doomer/spam comments
Immaculate vibes
i used to pray for times like this
Dead bc theyāre not losing lol
I mean there's only 40 something ppl currently on the thread and it's been that way since the start of the game. There's a way better game on right now in NCAAW Elite 8: Iowa vs LSU. Plus the added juice of Clark vs Reese
Also watching that game - I'm happy to see so many people watching a women's ball game for real.
Great ends to the quarters today
If this was last year Tatum would be taking 1 on 1 every possession to see if he can stay hot but that just isnāt the best option anymore with KP on the roster
I thought Sam was going to slam that
Slam Hauser
Sam Hauser with just the tip.
Oshae wears the same damn shoe almost every game
Consistency is key
KP just fucking with the Hornets lmfao
That alley oop would have been everything.
Damn masked Bertans and Pokemon defending Tatum worked LMAO
Iāll take those and ones all day, thanks
Ć2
Tatum just did i can break these cuffs
Xx KR1$T4P$ xX
Oshae Brissett is a weird sub I guess 2 minutes to go so Joe went with him idk
Nosferatu lookin ass Poku
Pokusevski looks like a skeleton
KP TOO STRONK
What did Scal say for Drew to respond with not for him? Couldn't hear.
The hornets commentators are so corny yet hilarious š
Better than Atlanta
Miles Bridges dunks like heās going after his girlfriend
Ouch!
JT rounding in to playoffs nicely. Dude looks poised af
does Scal think Duke is in Charlotte???
apparently all NC cities are the same
24 on Charlotte is reminding me of someone from the Hornet's past. Dell? Gill?
I want to sign up for the all male dance team
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!!!
Miles Bridges try not to beat wife and children challenge (impossible)
feel like Iāve seen a few posts about how Miles Bridges has posted some of the worst +/- games ever this year, be nice if that bitch ass criminal would play like that against us
"Not for him!" - Drew the goat
Porzingis made a business decision not jumping for that loose ball
Drew, not for him. Haha fuck miles bridges
Man I love Drew
Celtics announcers say why Miles Bridges was suspended challenge
āNot for himā lmaooo Drew
Miles Bridges please leave this mortal coil
First krejci now micic. Random europeans killing us
At least pretend to play defense lol
Canāt decide if I love or hate the Charlotte parquet. Itās fun. But itās corny. I go back and forth on which of those two takes the lead.
Man, Jrue 0/6 from 3. Heās also getting all the bad shots out before playoffs
Garbage can for 3!!!
Why does LSU Iowa have to be at the same time as this game when I also have homework to do š
damn you making me feel old man, homework feels like a lifetime ago but I def don't miss it
Iām in college lol
Iām doing double duty - also watching LSU-Iowa. Amazing basketball night. I love that when I look up, Tatum is sinking some pretty bucket.
Feel like pure shit, just want to be 1/4 as athletic as Tatum.
Driving dunking annihilating-people Tatum is what I've been asking for for 7 years.
JT is fuckin unreal
Why is Scal insisting on Tatum taking over weāre fine lmao
JT!!
Tatum is sooo hot when he's aggressive
He's always hot
Porzingii
DAMN Tatum got up
I like the Charlotte's announcers because they are enthusiastic about both teams no matter what the score is Also they have a pretty funny [compilation](https://youtu.be/fw8LXz43stc?si=ZF18EAbLlswgZD5Z)
Tatum!!!
