Game analysis, highlights and everything else that is happening in the NBA.
Hope the Celtics keep Steven’s
Don't be fooled by the box score, it wasn't that close
It wasn't as close as the final score indicates
Porzingis the OG unicorn looking great
Tingus Pingus is such a good fit for the Celtics. If he stays healthy I don't know how you stop that offense.
The Celtics had 28 Stocks tonight...
I don't want to overreact but the Hornets are losing 70 games
Ah our annual preseason spanking from Boston
Celtics will probably lead the league again in net rating. Domination on both sides
Healthy Porzingis is a perfect for them. Add Jrue to that and it’s just unfair.
It's ironic that we got Jrue because Milwaukee got Dame. It'll be interesting to see who gets the most benefit out of it.
How is that ironic at all
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a fork
Because you think by getting a new star player you won't make your rival better.
Miles Bridges played 0 minutes...? They should use him more, he's good.
Also, I've been in a Thai prison for a while. I sure hope nothing bad has happened to the Hornets since I was locked up.
Who is Neemias Queta and was this Hornets effect or can Celtics expect this from him off the bench?
I believe he fought in the Clone Wars and was once a padawan to Ki-Adi-Mundi
We shot 31% from three in this game btw
Tatum and Brown with the ball in their hands more, particularly Tatum, with the gravity Porzingis provides, is going to take those two to a different level this season. Tatum is gonna really be in the MVP hunt I think with how good of a record the Celtics are likely to have. Their offense is pretty much not guardable with all five of their guys at any time with the starting 5 being ballhandlers, being shooters, being able to make plays with the ball.
Tatum inefficient last night with his scoring but 7 assists, you can tell how much of a jump he has taken as a processor and he and KP have great chemistry. KP's presence is going to active Tatum's post game as well...he's gonna get single coverage. You can't shade off anyone else on the floor. That's a 3, drop in the bucket.
Hope Ntilikina is OK, Gabriel tripped and forced him into an uncomfortable landing in the 4th quarter with his knee. He should be OK, didn't look like a severe injury, but with the season starting in five days, hope he'll be ready to go. He was the backup PG in preseason for the Hornets. Now it may end up being Sumner for opening night.
Maybe Lamar Stevens has the potential to be a high quality role player, and hits stats get better every year that goes on.
